Hello,

Your concern is right. There is a concept of RH incompatibility if the mother group is negative and baby is positive.

However, your situation is different and it does not pose any risk of RH incompatibility.

In fact, the incompatibility is possible if the mother group is negative and the baby is positive.

But as the mother group is POsitive here(o positive) , there is no risk or hazards to the baby.

Its not about he group, its about whether the mother is negative and baby is positive. So you should not be worried.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Mahboob Ur Rahman , General & Family Physician
