Rh negative pregnancy is definitely a high risk pregnancy..
you hv to be careful about certain things..
Antenatal anti D at 28 weeks s necessary.
Also few additional blood tests ICT and Rh titres may be needed.
Also better to Deliver at a centre with blood bank which has B negative blood..
Post delivery baby s blood group and DCT needs to be done.. and accordingly second anti D needs to be taken as well..
In next pregnancy too care has to be taken..
