Hi
Rh factor doesn't cause any abortion.
1. We can't tell what will be the baby's blood group beforehand. Baby may be rh positive or negative according to the dominant and reaus genes in father.
2. After abortion if she is taken injection anti D immune globulin then chances of getting rhesus positive is less.
If she is not taken any D injection changes of getting rhesus positive baby are there. for that some test are there to diagnose early and some treatment also available.
