Further to the discussion about anti-D, I was in clinics today and the
subject came up. Woman was Rh - and partner was also Rh -. Dr was happy
for her to skip anti-D

Yes, mistakes can be made by hosp labs on the blood typing of the
newborn. Happened to me. Two neg parents, first child neg. Normally I
wouldn't have even checke
In my original post I was making a suggestion based on
natural selection not knowing that the neg gene is always recessive (yes I also
did some research). Because the negative gene IS RECESSIVE two negative
parents have only negative genes to pass on and therefore cannot have a positive
ess 2 x Rh neg genes - one from each parent. If somone
is Rh pos it is possible for them to carry either a positive or
negative recessive gene. I hope that makes sense?

Hi, one possibility is that the lab could have made a mistake or there was a
mix-up with specimens? MM
There is no possibility 2 RH- parents can have an RH+ baby. The positive
gene is dominant, therefore:
If a person has the genes + +, the Rh factor in the blood will be positive.

At the risk of sounding stupid, I remember a couple who were both Rh-ve and
yet their baby was Rh+ve.
Now was this a case of 'Father unknown' or a mistake, or is it possible for
this to happen?

Perhaps possible with a recessive gene ?
Autosomal dominant or not etc..

Funnily enough, we are not allowed to test the partners of Rh neg women to see if they are negative too, thus ruling out the necessity for giving Anti-D, because apparently we can't trust women to be truthful about the father of their baby!!

Having done a bit of research on it recently for our birth centre women it seems that only 1.5% of negative women will become isoimmunized during pregnancy. And that figure includes a large proportion who are mismanaged and not given Anti-D when potential sensitizing events occur eg. bleeding, ect
