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 checked

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

Now was this a case of 'Father unknown' or a mistake, or is it
possible
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

There is no possibility 2 RH- parents can have an RH+ baby. The positive

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.
If a person
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 necessityfor giving Anti-D, because apparently we can't trust women to be truthful about the father of their baby!!

I had this experience! I am Rh neg and so is my hubby. I was told I would
still need to have anti-D during pregnancy. Although the doctor never
stated that my husband may not have been the father of my child, that's
what was implied. I refused and thankfully was saved from any further
I agree with you,Brenda, my point is that we aren't allowed to test the partners even if they want it.

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

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,
