Patient's question:
My husband and I are both Type O blood. Can our child have Type A blood?Medical history and treatment outcomes:
No significant treatment has been administered.
Help needed:
Thank you for the quick response from the doctor—how should I be treated and prevented?
Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, two individuals with O blood type cannot have a child with A blood type, as blood type is determined by generational inheritance. If two O-type individuals get married, their child can only be O-type. After many careful checks, the following has been confirmed. In some cases, there may be testing errors. Generally, if both parents are O-type, the child can only be O-type. If the child is A-type, it is possible that the child was switched at birth.
