Hey Nelle. Having the Anti-e makes me high risk during the pregnancy as if the baby got Big E from dad, then my little e antibodies build up and start attacking the baby. It can cause anemia in the baby in-utero and in serious cases they have been known to transfuse to the baby while still in the womb and then deliver as soon as its considered "safe" to do so.

My PPH puts me in high risk for third stage complications.

Then there is the hypoglycemia which I am so used to monitoring anyway I never really thing about it, but my blood sugar drops like a stone when I am pg.

Finally I have a mitral valve regurgitation. Thats a valve in the heart that doesnt close properly so blood flows backwards from the ventricle and back into the atrium. Under high physical load this can cause it to flood back into the lungs.

I have really never put 1+1+1+1 all together before and come up with 4. Its always just been 1 to me.

Ali: Its Anti-e, which is another part of the RH chain. So its like Anti-D, but the anti-d immunoglobin is not structured to help anyone but D.

I know that I have generally cruised through 5 other pregnancies, and really taking that into consideration, it shouldnt stress me as much as it has, but as I said above. Before they were just little things to me. It kind of made me think of the phrase 'death by 1000 cuts' iykwim.
