Rh Negative Posted: 12-17-04 18:52pm
I think that this is pretty rare. But I
have it. My blood type is a negative so
in my first two pregnancies I got this
shot at 28 weeks and then after labor.
Well with this pregnancy I started
spotting at 6 weeks and spotted for over a
month along with cramping, so then when
they found out my blood status they gave
me that shot and I havent spotted since or
had cramping. You can go here for a good
article

Yeah I realized that, you have to go to
the main site and do a search for rh
status. I added a link to their main
site.

I too am rh neg. I am a-. After my
last miscarriage they gave me the shot,
and it's been 5 years since then. My doc
told me I would get a shot at around 28
weeks u.N.L.E.S.S I start bleeding before

Yeah, they give you one if you bleed, one
at 28 weeks and then another one right
after you give birth. And the shot hurts
really bad. They give it to you in your
hip and then that whole side of your hip
and the leg on that side hurt for like one
or two days when you walk. Plus you have
to wait 30 minutes after you get it before
they will let you leave the doctors
office. But you have to do it.

Um..I'm .Rh neg and I have had the shot 3
times. 28w w. My first and one right
after. It didnt hurt at all. Just
itched. I didnt have to stay either. I
took the shot and was able to leave. Same
w/ this baby and it didnt hurt.
In no way does this shot hurt unless you
cant handle needles .O.R. They shot it in
your nerve. I had no problems walking
either. My cheek just itched. .L.O.L.

Hmm. Well everyone is different. Doctors
have different procedures, and I guess ive
just had bad luck with that particular
shot. Lol

Im thinkin' so. L.O.L I had my shot right
the butt cheek. She did make sure when
isaid it itched that it wasnt a side
effect to hurt me. She did say nurses who
give it, sometimes hit the syatic nerve
