Don't worry it is the other way around!  When the mother is NEGATIVE and carries one POSITIVE baby, then you need to worry about a second child.  It is called Rh disease, and it ran in my family among the ladies with negative Rh.\n\nA POSITIVE mother doesn't have the same thing.\n\nHere is more on Rh disease. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rh_disease\n\nHope this puts you at ease!

I've heard some bad stuff about it. A mother died, The baby sometimes dies sometimes it's incomplete and you would have to make an emergency trip to the doctors because you are hemorrhaging to death..   It's not a good Idea.  \n\nI wish you all the best.  \nGod Bless you,

The risk lies in the mother and foetus, not the father. If mummy is RH- and baby is RH+, mummy will develop antibodies against RH+. The second time mummy carries a RH+ baby, baby gets killed as an foreign particle. To know your RH factor, do a blood test. The +/ - sign following your blood group (A, B, AB, O) will tell you which RH factor you have.

Have you tested positive for MTHFR &/or thrombosis? It is my understanding that if you test positive for both it can be very difficult to carry a pregnancy to term.

Your taking a big chance on having a deformed child.  Identical blood imprenating doesn't normally work. That's why a blood test is required before getting married. The only shrude answer I can give you if you two are so in love with each other is to have her tubes tied and adopt if you want to make a complete family.  I'm really sorry I said that, but love has no boundaries and other's might comdeme me for saying this. I'm just being a realist to try to help your situation out... Dr Checko... (Nickname)

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.\n\nEveryone has an Rh factor, it's either negative or positive. \nI 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.\n\nThe 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. \n\n\nHere is something wikipedia says about the Rh negative aspect of pregnancy:\n\nRhD 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)\n.

Rh incompatability is a condition that mostly occurs in the setting of a pregnant woman who has Rh NEGATIVE blood group.\n\nIf she is carrying a foetus that is Rh POSITIVE, it is possible that when some foetal blood enters her circulation (usually any time there is vaginal bleeding there is a possibility of placental bleeding and the possibility that foetal cells enter the mother) she can detect them as foreign cells and develop antibodies against them.\n\nThese antibodies can cross the placenta and then can affect the baby's blood (causes the blood cells to pop - haemolysis).\n\nThe treatment for this is to give the mother a dose of these antibodies as soon as there is a chance of foetal blood cells entering the mother's circulation (within 72hrs of this).\n\nSee the wiki pages.

if mother catch some infectious disease then the bacterias or virus could transfer to womb and make some problem for fetus and even abortion.\nlike Brucellas,and the virus of Measles or Rubella

What causes hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN)?\n\n\nIt's basically an incompatible blood of mother and baby, due to an Rh - mom and Rh + dad.  Baby has Rh + and so mother's immune system (antibodies) starts attacking baby's "foreign cells".  For the second pregancy, the mom will be "Rh sensitized" --remembers, so it may most likely not occur again.\n\n"HDN most frequently occurs when an Rh negative mother has a baby with an Rh positive father. When the baby's Rh factor is positive, like the father's, problems can develop if the baby's red blood cells cross to the Rh negative mother. "

YES. Absolutely, despite all the answers you've received to the contrary. \n\nThe way blood groups are named, either your blood contains certain proteins (named A and B) or it doesn't - if you have both you are blood type AB; if you have only A you are A; if you have only B you are, you guessed it, B, and if you have neither you are blood type O.\n\nIf you have a gene for a blood protein, either A or B, you will have that protein in your blood. However, we have two copies of each chromosome, and it is possible that each parent has one copy of the A gene on one chromosome, and doesn't have it on their other chromosome (O). This means they will both be blood type A, since they each have one copy. However, if they have a child who happens to get the O chromosome from each of them, then the child will be blood type O. Mathematically expressed, each parent is AO, and on average their children have a 25% chance of being AA (blood type A and cannot have type O kids), 50% chance of being AO (blood type A but able to have type O kids), and 25% chance of being OO (blood type O).\n\nThis is the whole idea of recessive genes, which also explains why two brown-eyed people can have a blue-eyed baby without any hanky-panky going on.\n\nAs regards the Rhesus factor, i.e. the "+", again that is a recessive characteristic. The child must have received the Rh factor from his father, since his mother is negative. (NOTE that any Rh-negative woman who has an Rh-positive baby should get a shot of something called RhoGam, or WinRho, to prevent problems in future pregnancies.)

Hi there...I'm not aware of any dangers but just let it runs its course.  Sometimes women need to be concerned when they get a virus early on, say in the first trimester.  But your baby is probably in a good stage and in good health so I would only do what you should always do with a virus.  Rest, and plenty of liquids.

AB Rh+\n\nThe differences in human blood are due to the presence or absence of certain protein molecules called antigens and antibodies. The antigens are located on the surface of the red blood cells and the antibodies are in the blood plasma. Individuals have different types and combinations of these molecules. The blood group you belong to depends on what you have inherited from your parents.\n\nThere are more than 20 genetically determined blood group systems known today, but the AB0 and Rh systems are the most important ones used for blood transfusions. Not all blood groups are compatible with each other. Mixing incompatible blood groups leads to blood clumping or agglutination, which is dangerous for individuals.\n\nblood group AB have both A and B antigens on the surface of the red blood cells and no A or B antibodies at all in the blood plasma therefore no agglutination. \n\nMany people also have a so called Rh factor on the red blood cell's surface. This is also an antigen and those who have it are called Rh+. Those who haven't are called Rh-. A person with Rh- blood does not have Rh antibodies naturally in the blood plasma (as one can have A or B antibodies, for instance). But a person with Rh- blood can develop Rh antibodies in the blood plasma if he or she receives blood from a person with Rh+ blood, whose Rh antigens can trigger the production of Rh antibodies. A person with Rh+ blood can receive blood from a person with Rh- blood without any problems.

They have to check it because if you are given the wrong type of blood and you are RH negative, then the antibodies in your blood will react against each other and create an attack on your body. I know I'm RH negative and have had to get Rhogam shot with every pregnancy

Did they tell you anything about the test results? Sometimes women who have repeated miscarriages like this have an abnormal clotting factor in their blood that causes the placenta to clot off early in pregnancy and results in miscarriage; in other cases it could be due to incompatibility in certain blood factors between mother and fetus. Sometimes they don't find a specific cause. From your question it suggests that you CAN carry a pregnancy (since you have a child and the last was lost so late and unrelated to anything with you)...so I wouldn't give up hope on this.  As for chromosomal...some people have what is called a "balanced translocation", which doesn't affect them but could cause genetic problems in their children and lead to miscarriages as you describe. The chances for a successful preganancy in that situation could be significantly lower than if it was a problem like the ones described previously. The testing would tell if you or your  partner has such a translocation. There are ways around that situation, too...but they would involve IVF, to ensure that any potential babies conceived did NOT carry the translocation.

Most of the times it does not cause problems.  It only becomes a problem when the mother is missing the Rh factor in her blood and the father of the child is Rh positive.  Even then it is only a problem after the first child is born.  The process is called Rh hemolytic disease of the newborn.  Essentially the mother will develop an immune response to any subsequent baby that is also Rh positive, if she is exposed to any of the Rh factors from her first Rh positive baby.  This used to be very common.  Now there is an antenatal (after birth) treatment of antibodies given to the mothers so she won't react to her subsequent babies.  To get a full description and explanation go to wikipedia.

Rh factor is a very important factor in pregancy.  Our red blood cell is covered with antigen.  For example:  if your blood type is AB, you have antigen A, and antigen B on your red blood cells but you don't make antibodies *substance that bind to antigen* against A and B because if you do, you literally destroy your Reb Blood Cell.  Rh Factor functions the same way.  Rh factor is basically protein on the cell surface.  If you have this protein on your RBC surface, you are considered as Rh+, but if you don't have this protein on your RBC surface, you are Rh-.  When Rh- blood is introduced into Rh+ blood *assuming this is the same blood type*, the  Rh- blood will see the protein on the cell surface of the Rh+ blood as foreign and will start making antibody to attack the Rh+ blood.  The result could be cell lysis etc.  Hence, it's important to know what kind of Rh factor the mother has because if the mother has Rh- and the baby is Rh+ *this could happen because the dad can be Rh+*, then when blood of the baby is transferred or crossed the placenta during laor, the mother will start develop antibody against Rh+.  The first pregnancy usually is fine, but when the woman is pregant with the second child, she definitely needs to be checked because fetus receives blood from the mother and if the monther blood contains antibody against the Rh+, red blood cell in the fetus is destroyed.  \n\nYou can read more about how to prevent unwanted antibodi production against Rh+ factor when the mother is Rh- factor in the following link.\n\nHope this helps

It depends upon what type of blood YOU have, and the Rh factors (+ or -) or you and yoru parents.\n\nBesides, there are very few places that gurantee that you will get the blood someone donates for you, if any.  If you donate your own, maybe.  But you don't know what type of diseases your parents or friends might have, so they will not gurantee that you'll get their blood.  Takes awhile to process it, anyway.
