sarahrach I am so sorry to read your news.
Where I work everyone that is a negative blood group has anti-d regardless of what gestation they are. After 12weeks the dose is larger thats the only difference.
Thanks ladies - I'm heading to the ER tomorrow to get my anti-D shot.
Today the bleeding has gone into overdrive, it the most awful thing imaginable seeing it all pass. TMI I know, but I was in the shower when it plopped to the floor, twas heart breaking. Really has revved up the grieving a notch - makes it so real and so, so sad.
Sorry for your loss, I too had a blighted ovum that lasted until 10 weeks and i've lost another since then, I am also rhesus neg.
Was going to say, make sure if you bleed for more than 2 - 3 weeks that you get another shot of anti D because it apparently only lasts a cpl weeks and our bodies can develop antibodies which can effect the next preg.
I now have to have a bloodtest before i try for the 3rd time to make sure i haven't developed antibodies, maybe ask your doc about checking for that before you try again just to be sure.
Being rhesus neg is a pain
Thinking of you in this tough time
