Rh negative is NOT a blood type like A or B or AB or O. You can have A or B or any of those and you are still ALSO either Rh positive or Rh negative.

Everyone has an Rh factor, it's either negative or positive.
I found out I am Rh negative when I was pregnant because women have to be tested for it. It has something to do with your antibodies attacking the blood cells of a fetus that could potentially have Rh positive blood. I had to get a shot to prevent it from happening.

The Rh in Rh factor stands for rhesus, so named because the Rh factor is an antigen that was first discovered in the blood of rhesus monkeys. The Rh antigen is called D. Most people produce the D antigen, but a few people are missing functional copies of the RHD gene, and they produce no D antigen. These are the people who have Rh negative blood types, and the non- functional version (allele) of the RHD gene is called the RHD silent allele.


Here is something wikipedia says about the Rh negative aspect of pregnancy:

RhD Hemolytic disease of the newborn is often called Rhesus disease or Rh disease. Sensitization to Rh D antigens (usually by feto-maternal transfusion during pregnancy) may lead to the production IgG anti-RhD antibodies which can pass through the placenta. This is of particular importance to RhD negative females of or below childbearing age, because any subsequent pregnancy may be affected by the Rhesus D hemolytic disease of the newborn if the baby is Rh D positive. The vast majority of Rh disease is preventable in modern antenatal care by injections of IgG anti-D antibodies (Rho(D) Immune Globulin)

Somebody (biology professor) said that people in Czech republic and eastern europe have the highest instance of RH negative blood (and I don't even think it's a majority over there).

Asians and Native Americans have almost exclusively RH positive blood.

Blue blood??? Do elaborate, please~!~ I also have RH negative blood.
