My blood group is B Negative. Some people told me that the girls who have Rh negative in their blood group will get some complications in their delivery. Is it true?? Will there any problem during the time of delivering a baby??

You will have to take the shot Rhogram if the babies blood type is RH+. You will also have to get the shot if you miscarry a child with RH+. If you don't take the shot, the next time you get pregnant with a RH+ baby, your body will treat it like a virus or disease and try to get rid of it....
Definatly take the shot.... (Rhogram)
Ask your doc for more questions....

I have the Rh negative factor also...you will receive a shot of Rhogam about 28 weeks, which will keep your blood from being sensitized. Then after delivery they will check the baby's blood type...if it is different from yours (+) then you will receive another shot after delivery...I have done a lot of research on this and I have read nothing about complications with delivery. It's just to make sure your blood doesn't mix with the baby's and that your body doesn't treat the baby as a foreign object and attack during pregnancy. As long as you receive the shot during your pregnancy nothing should happen, if not then there is the chance the baby could have jaundice when born. There's lots of information on the Internet but I hope this helps!

I am also B- blood type and have had two children with no complications during delivery. You will need to get a shot during your pregnancy and also one after you deliver if your baby has a positive blood type.
The only complications I know of are if you deliver a baby that has a positive blood type and do not get the Rhogam shot, your next pregnancy might miscarry due to your immune system reacting to the Rh-positive blood if that baby has positive blood typing as well.

I'm going to try to answer this the best I can. It runs in my family, but I was lucky to have a positive blood type. My aunt has a negative blood type and I think when she had her children they had to do a transfusion on her or on my cousins. However, this was 30+ years ago, so things may be different now. Considering you know your blood type and your doctor is aware, they most likely have treatments available to protect your baby. I think it has to do with negative blood mixing with positive blood during the birth of your baby. It can cause anemia in the baby if the baby has positive blood. If your baby has negative blood also, there shouldn't be any problems at all. Do some research online and ask your doctor about what you can expect. Good luck to you.

they are probably thinking about rh incompatability. if the mom is negative and the baby is positive Rh IF there is a mixing of blood during delivery you can develope antibodies to the positive factor. there is a shot they give Rh negative moms while pregnant and after birth if baby is positive called the rhogam. its to prevent complications in future pregnancies. its never a problem with first pregnancy.
also, one thing they don't seem to want to tell moms getting the shot is that it is a human blood product.
a gentle birth with few interventions and delayed cord cutting is very unlikely to result in blood mixing.

I believe there's a shot you'll get later in your pregnancy to prevent these complecations. I think it's called the Roghem shot or something. I'd ask your OB to explain it.

Yes.
But.
You should ask your Gynaecologist to explain this to you. He/she should explain you and let you have some literature to keep and read from time to time.
They have treatment for this particular, problem.
