I wouldn't have thought amnio, but there's a needle they'll give you just before/ or just after birth.
Your doctor will know all about it. hth xx

Thanks ladies,
That's what I thought, I've had plenty of anti d shots & had a BT before I fell Preg with this bub that showed I hadn't developed antibodies so all should be fine.
She sometimes says things to scare me I think.

Just wanted to let you know I have 3 boys and only had the Anti D with all of them. My first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage so I had the Anti D after that and then with each pregnancy first one at 28 weeks and next Anti D injection around 34 weeks from memory.

On a side note all my boys are o- themselves so turns out I probably didn't need them as both DH and I are o-.

Ahh ok yea my DH is pos so there's a chance bub could be pos too, have had my first shot for this Preg & ob did mention one @ 34 weeks and I assume there will be one @ birth too.

Babyluv where I work they take cordblood at birth and wait for the results and if bub is negative you wont need the anti-D shot until next pregnancy. If positive however they will give you one.

Megs if your DH is negative also all your bubs will be negative and you don't need it. I know a few who haven't had it for that reason and others who know their DHs are and have it anyway as if your not allergic to it its not going to cause any harm anyway.
