Patient's question:
I am O-negative blood type and my husband is A-positive. I saw online that some people say in this situation, the first child won't get jaundice, but the second child is very likely to. Is this claim scientific? Since we weren't married before, our first child was aborted, and now we're very afraid of having another child and causing an impact.Doctor's answer:
Neonatal jaundice is a normal phenomenon. It usually disappears about 10 days after birth. Don't worry, I think neonatal jaundice is unrelated to previous pregnancies, and not all newborns with ABO blood type incompatibility will experience hemolysis, with a certain possibility (the general incidence rate is 11.9%).
