Since your wife has a negative blood type she is called "RH Negative" and will need to get a shot called a RhoGam shot. I had to go through the same thing.

When the woman is a negative blood type and the father isn't then the baby could be either. Well for some reason only women with negative blood types have the problem where if their baby is a positive blood type then their body starts to build up antibodies against the baby and the next pregnancy she has her body will fight off the fetus as it would an infection. She just gets a shot towards the last 1/3 of her pregnancy and then if the baby was born with a positive blood type she would get another shot after giving birth, but if the baby had a negative blood type she would be fine. Here is a link to a site with some more info! Hope it helps!

Your wife will be given Rhogam. Which procedure they follow depends on whether the country you are living in currently has a shortage of Rhogam. If your country has a shortage: When the baby is born, baby will be tested to see if also RH negative. If RH positive, your wife will be given a Rhogam shot. In many studies, only 2% of women given Rhogam after birth have developed antibodies that can potentially target later babies. If your country does not have a shortage: your wife will be given an injection of Rhogam at roughly 28 weeks and then again after the birth (baby will be tested first). This reduces the rate of women developing antibodies to less than 1%. Rhogam is only effective for those who develop the D antibody, however, that is what the majority of women will develop. Rhogham is a blood product and there have been at least 4 incidents worldwide of Rhogham being contaminated with Hepatitis B or C. For this reason, many women choose NOT to have the 28 week injection (but do get the one after birth) and just take the risk that they are not part of that 2%. Rhogham itself will not harm the child. However, this injection is HIGHLY effective and I would recommend it to anybody.

Your blood type group is not a problem it all depends on what your RH levels are. When you talk to your wife's OB/GYN they will do a test

Since you are a positive and she is a negitive, she will have to get a rhogam shot so the positive blood wont mix with her negitive blood. Other than that, everything will be fine. Congrats

No, but because she has RH - blood, she may need to have a shot.

I have RH+ blood, so I never had the shot, so I don't quite understand what it's for, but you can have your OBGYN explain it to you.

If this is her first pregnancy,there are very less chances of developing complications for this pregnancy.
However her next pregnancy may be severly affected,until taken proper care this time!

Yes, there can be. Probably not in the first pregnancy, but the next. You should consult your doctor. Anti-D immunoglobulin shots should be administered to your wife. Please do a search with "rhesus negative".
