Hi Ladies,

At my appt the other day my Dr suggested me having the anti D shot in weeks 28 & 36 if dp is a positive blood group (im O neg)

I am curious to know why this has changed? When i had Dd i had the shot after her birth.

If you had the injection - did you have any side effects to you or the unborn child? What were they?

If dp is a neg do i still need to have the shot?

I know i can refuse the shot until after the birth but would like to make an informed decision.

I also read something about rogham (the anti d shot) having mercury in it?

Im a bit scared to have an injection while pregnant, especially a relatively new one.

Thanks
