Hmm I will definitely do that.

Ayodeji Olayinka Adeyoriju · Answer

@Glory14257, 9 days after delivery is late but its better late than never. When next u get pregnant, i will advise u explain d situation to ur doctor. They might decide to give u a shot before delivery to be on d safer side, then another dose after delivery.

Glory Sunday · Answer

Mine was given to me at Day nine after delivery because of ignorant n the consultants did not inform me till my brother in law who is a doc came and ask that was when I went back to the hospital for it. Infact he wanted to sue them. What can you say about this.

Ayodeji Olayinka Adeyoriju · Answer

@Mariana21192, No, there is no need!

Ayodeji Olayinka Adeyoriju · Answer

@Angel24924, if a man is rh neg has a wife of rh postive and gets pregnant with a baby whos positive, during delivery if some of d baby's blood may enter the mother's circulation thereby forming anti-rh antibodies! When d mum gets pregnant with another rh positive baby, the anti-rh antibodies may enter d baby's circulation thereby causing d blood cell to burst which can lead to recurrently miscarriage and still births!
