Negitive Blood
Anyone else have - blood? I've already had to get a shot (in the butt no less) of Rogain (i think that's what it's called). How many do you have to get? It's really annoying LOL.

Re: Negitive Blood
My mom had to go through that with us. She is O- and my brother and I are both O+, it's for your protection.
They didn't give my mom the shot for some reason when she had my brother and some of his antibodies, the O+, crossed the placenta at birth, and if she would have tried to have another baby, the antibodies would have attacked the new baby or my mom.

Re: Negitive Blood
I had it and its no big deal. They gave it to me in my arm at 28 weeks, I am B-. When Luka was born they tested him and he was O+ so they gave me another shot. If he was O- I wouldnt have needed it.

Re: Negitive Blood
I dont think you have to get it in the butt. When I went she asked if I wanted it in my thigh or arm and I said arm, she said it might hurt more, but it didnt hurt at all. When I got the second shot in the hosiptal I also got it in my arm and that also didnt hurt.

Re: Negitive Blood
I got that shot (rogam) in my butt and didn't feel a THING, thought they hadn't done it yet.
HOWEVER...the doc said he would stick it in the fleshy part of my cheek..
turns out the whole thing is fleshy, lol!!! I have good padding!!

Re: Negitive Blood
I'm RH- and they told me I need this but my dr. who did my IVF told me that I wouldn't need it because my DH is negative also.
