Hello
Thanks for your query.
Do not worry.
The incidence of Rh sensitization is only 4 %.
You should have ICT test every 4 weeks from the second trimester of pregnancy onwards.
If ICT is negative, no cause for worry.
If ICT is positive, then the tests are repeated every 4 weeks, till a critical titre is reached.
At the critical titre, amniocentesis is carried out, and if required, intra uterine transfusion can be done.`
All the best.
Take care.
