Because the mother's blood antibodies did not affect the child. However, if the mother is not treated with Rhogam after delivery the mother has a increased chance of creating antibodies that WILL affect her next baby in utero due to the rh incompatibility creating antibodies that could attack the fetus in utero. Make sure you receive RHOGAM! Hope this helps!

If the father is 0 positive and the mother is o negative can the baby be a pos?

Yes, the baby could be positive. If the baby is positive the mother needs to get on immuno-suppressant drugs or she will have an immune reaction and her body will try to kill the "foreign object" aka the fetus. Best of luck.


Rh positive mother a positive baby?

If a person has the Rh factor, then they are positive. If they don't have the Rh factor, they are negative. The Rh factor is dominant, so a mother with it would have an Rh positive baby even if the father is negative for the Rh factor.


Can the firstborn baby be Rh negative?

Yes, the firstborn baby can be Rh negative if both parents carry the Rh-negative gene. The Rh factor is inherited from the parents, and if the mother is Rh negative and the father is also Rh negative, their child will be Rh negative. However, if the mother is Rh positive and the father is Rh negative, the child can either be Rh positive or Rh negative depending on the specific alleles inherited.


What are the possible blood types the baby could have if the mother is type O-positive and the father has the rh-negative blood type?

The baby's blood type would depend on the specific genotype of both parents. With a mother who is O-positive and a father who is Rh-negative, the baby could potentially have blood types A-negative, B-negative, AB-negative, or O-negative.


IF a mother is HR negative and father is HR positive why is second pregnancy a problem?

If the mother is Rh negative and the father Rh positive there is a possibility that the unborn baby will be Rh positive as well. If the baby is Rh positive than the mother (who is Rh negative) has antibodies made for Rh positive substances which would include the baby. Basically the mothers body will attack the baby because it is not a match with her body. Commonly this is not as much of a problem with the first baby because the body does not build up the resistance to the first child but the second child will often run into complications because the body has built up antibodies against the second child's Rh positive blood. This is often called Rhesus disease or Rh disease.
