Re: Rhogam Shot
I've had it once and have to get it again next week..I had it early due to spotting/bleeding but normally I would have just gotten it at 28 weeks (next week) and when the baby is born....

Re: Rhogam Shot
Just got mine at the 28 week appointment!
You only have to get it again after the baby is born if the baby has a positive blood type (I think).

Re: Rhogam Shot
I got during both pregnancies and once after a m/c. I'm pretty sure I got it after each birth too (I feel like they were always poking and prodding)
It's an easy shot, they put it into a fatty area (my first was my butt, but then every one after was my arm)

I think this is true - I know I had to get it again after DD was born bc she was A+.

Re: Rhogam Shot
I got one with spotting as well and was told I would get one later in the pregnancy and after the baby is born. It is to protect the baby and any future children you may have.

Re: Rhogam Shot
I received mine 3 weeks ago. This is my 3rd pg and the 5th time getting it. I received it while pregnant and then again when I delivered because the kids blood type are not negative.
