I’m rhesus negative (not O, but -AB) and both my babies are + and so I’ve had anti d injections in both of my pregnancies.
For me, the potential risks of not having it, particularly if you plan to have more babies in the future, was enough reason to have the injections as recommended.

I’m negative and all 3 of my babies are positive so I’ve had a lot of anti d injections in my time. The injection is considered safe for mother and baby, and the benefits absolutely outweigh the very minor and rare side effects.

I had it during my pregnancy and I found it was worth it. No side effects x

Absolutely worth it. We've essentially eliminated rhesus disease because of the availability of testing and anti d injections

Someone explain to me I’m confused… I’m AB+ but I wasn’t given any injections for any of my pregnancy and my daughter is AB- does that mean anything?
