Does a woman with AB blood type and a man with O blood type have a higher risk of their child developing hemolytic disease?

Patient's question:

I and my husband are both healthy. We got married in January 2012. Now we want to have a baby. I am AB blood type and he is O blood type. Will our baby have hemolytic disease?

Doctor's answer:

Medical Analysis: Hello, this situation should not cause hemolysis.
Guidance: Since you are AB and your husband is O-negative, hemolysis is generally not expected. It is typically the O-negative mother who experiences hemolysis, similar to the principles of blood transfusion. AB blood can be transfused with O-negative blood.
