Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concerns.
In your case there are chances of Rh incompatibility although very less in first child. The chances increase with every next pregnancy.
Therefore to to prevent this Rh incompatibility, anti D injections are advised after delivery. Indirect coombs test is done at 20 weeks of pregnancy to check the antibody titre in mother.
Please discuss these issues with the gynecologist.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
