RH Blood Factor: You are fine with RH negative blood. It is the women with Rh negative blood that had the problem, and only if the father was Rh positive and the baby was Rh positive. Two Rh negative parents would not have any problem. Generally the first 2 babies managed OK. Each RH incompatible pregnancy ( mother neg and baby positive) cause antibodies to be formed, causing more problems with subsequent pregnancies. My mother was Rh neg and my Dad was positive. Babies 5 and 6 had problems. Probably not a factor in a single pregnancy. In the 1900's infant and childhood mortality was high. There were also epidemics.
