does anyone know anybody with rh negative blood. and if so was it hard for them to have a baby?

Answer 1

I'm RH negative...with my first 3 I had the rhogam shot at 24 weeks and then again after delivery because my babies blood was positive. With my last baby I looked into the rhogam shot and decided it's not very health for myself or my child to inject that junk into me and as long as there nothing like a serious accident it was very un-needed. So instead my dr. drew blood every 2 months to keep an eye on my antibody levels. After my son was born he was RH + so I got the shot then....So I avoided putting my baby at risk by using rhogam while I was pregnant! :) no problemo!

Answer 2

Having RH negative blood does not make it hard to have a baby. Most women are given Rhogam shots which eliminates the problems of sensitivity.

I was not so lucky. I was not given any injections and actually developed sensitivity already. Any further pregnancies are high risk and I will see a specialist in maternal-fetal medicine. So, yes, there is serious concerns for any further babies that I have.

Below is some info on RH disease. The only part that is inaccurate is that it has been found that two parents who are rh neg can produce a child that is rh positive.

Answer 3

My cousin just had a baby and she or the daddy of the baby had rh negative blood. She had to take medicine for the rh negative blood and ended up having a c-section but I don't think that had anything to do with the rh. Good luck!

Answer 4

I have RH- blood. It wasn't hard to have a baby. Blood type has nothing to do with ease of getting pregnant or delivering. A problem could arise if the baby has positive blood, it could cause your body to basically treat the baby as a foreign object. Having negative blood doesn't have much effect on the first pregnancy, except you have to get an extra shot or 2. My first child DID have positive blood. Now, I had my kids alot of years ago, and things might have changed since then, but with my 2nd child, they just took blood tests every month, and I got the shot twice I think. Both kids very healthy, no problems.

Answer 5

RH is when one has a negitave and the other partner has a positive. This happened in my case. My daughter came out fine i just had to get a shot when I was about 28 weeks and right after I gave birth so that my immune system doesnt fight off my baby. It isnt really harder to get pregnant but it becomes more of a concern if you have more then one child with an rh factor. It just has to be monitored more carefully. You may miscarry more also but it is possible. I did it! And she is perfectly fine...

Answer 6

I am RH- and husand is RH+...RH- has no effect on conceiving a child. Usually RH- does not affect the first child but subsequent children. A woman who is RH- will receive a series of shot called RHOGAM while she is pregnant which will help in future pregnancies.

There is a lot of information about RH- and RHOGAM on the internet, just type it in to your search engine and you will find a ton of information on the subject.

Answer 7

my mother was rh negative and had many miscarriages before and after me. she didn't know that there was a shot she could have taken to help aleviate some of the problems she was having. because of this, i ended up being an only child....
