OK, another row with my DH about this, so I want to know if I'm over-reacting and incredibly argumentative right now.

I received in the post an appointment for my first anti-D injection, plus told I'd be given another one pre-birth and one post-birth if the baby is Rh+. I don't want any injections! I haven't so much as bumped my tummy in recent weeks (whether holding a rather heavy basin against my hips and stomach at 5-8w pg will do anything is another matter, and a bit too late now) and IF I had done, I would have gone to the midwife and requested this. Because I do know that I could have problems with the next baby if I don't.

I'm not wanting to argue with everything or cause problems, but do I really need to be given products from someone else's blood? OK, I know the chance of an infection from this is so small it's not worth considering, but I just don't want this done! I am having the GD test anyway, so what's the harm in another needle, says my DH, and I should stop thinking that the midwives want to hurt me. I know they don't, and I'm fine with any injection I need to be given (I've had a lot over the years), I just don't see the need for this one right now. Post-birth then yes, if Liebs is Rh+ I'll have this without question, but right now I see no need.

Am I being stupid about this? I know that 20 years ago women weren't given pre-birth routine injections and those women went on to have other babies (my aunt is one case in point) so why do we need it now?
