After tattooing their names on each other - not good news.

I'm so sorry to hear that, however I will NOT say that maybe it was for the better, because I don't believe that's good, no matter the situation.

But you and yours have my conselations

I was always told that if the mother was negative and the father was positive, all the children would be positive, as this is dominant? So what were you doing gritsar?

Just kidding!!

Don't hurt me!

No but seriously, that's what I've heard.

My mom had the same problem, and didn't know it. She was fine with my brother (#1), but almost lost me, and found out during the pregnancy. She had to get shots continuously during her pregnancy (with me). After having me, she had to get a shot, then again after her pregnancies with my two younger sisters.


To debi~~ So sorry that she lost it, I can't imagine how hard that is.

Nope, don't work that way.
My father is A/B negative, my mom was O positive. I am A negative. My ex was O positive. My son was born A negative (like me) and my daughter O positive.
ETA: Look at the blood type inheritence chart at the bottom of this page:

http://www.givelife2.org/aboutblood/bloodtypes.asp
I think my Mom was positive, but not 100% sure.
This chart shows how the Rh factor is inherited:

Deb, there's some information on that page about the Rh factor too.

I need to read ALL of the thread before I post.


I'm so sorry!

I am so sorry, this must be just a very difficult time for your family.

Oh Debi! I am so sorry for you and your family.

My SIL miscarried her first pregnancy also. It was devistating to everyone, I cried

I wanted a niece or nephew sooo bad, but mostly I cried for Carrie. The physical pain (cramping) was bad enough, let alone the emotional. Needless to say her next pregnancy gave her a beautiful son and me one terribly onrey nephew!

There really are no words to comfort her- as someone said earlier- hearing that it was "God's will" or that there was "something wrong" won't help. Hopefully she'll heal on her own, and in her own time- and if she is able, in the future, to have another child (which she more than likley will) - that will greatly help also.

When my SIL miscarried, her co-workers bought her a lillac bush to plant in memorium. Just a thought.

ETA: Tell her a heat pack to the tummy helps with the cramping, if she's having any. And alot of rest when she can.

So how much more can you take this week, Debi? Between the fires/smoke, finding out you'll be a grandma, then having her miscarry? Hugs to both you, your DSS and his girlfriend!

You left out my mothers kidneys failing, or not, depending on if she over reacted to the doctor.

On the up side, we can go fishing this weekend in Big Bear - if it isn't on fire.

Good, you need a few hours of peace dear. Hopefully you fishing is the signal for rain, and these fires'll go out.
