I am 13 weeks pregnant with my second child and have A- blood. My first child has A+ blood, and my husband (father of both pregnancies) has O+ blood.

I was informed by my OB's office that I have tested positive for a small amount of B & C antibodies in my blood. She said that it will have to be monitored every 4 weeks with an antibody titer. Apparently this occurs in about every 1 in 100 pregnancies.

I am aware of the Rh positive and negative antibody in the blood. I received a Rhogam injection both at 28 weeks and after delivery of my first child.

Do any of the doctors or anyone else have any more information on this?

Thanks!
