yes blood incompatibilty definetly causes abortion.you are o+ve and your wife is AB -ve the child will have A+ or B+ blood group since your wife is AB -ve it will lead to incompatibilty during exchange of blood mostly at the time of delivery due to antibody formation for the +blood group which makes second pregnancy a difficult one, this type of incompatibility is known as Rh incompatibility which is one of the causes of abortion or miscarriage.
But dont worry there are remedies to this, consult your obstetrician . he/she will prescribe anti D injection which has to be given on 28 wks and 34 wks of gestation. consult your doctor for this.
