Question

RH Negative Loss at 4 weeks+5 days, do I need Rhogam shot?

I'm RH-negative and having an early MC/'Chemical' loss at 18DPO(started light to heavy period type bleeding today after faint & weakening BFP HPTs )

I'm wondering if I need to call my OB-GYN about getting Rhogam or not.(My husband is RH+ and I've always had Rhogam with my pregs & after delivery but this is the 1st MC/CP that I've had (that I'm aware of.)...

I was only about 4 weeks+5 days acc'd to my other online chart. sigh. I'll call my Dr. tomorrow to ask but I'm wondering if any other RHnegs have gone through this chemical pg/early MC?

I had a loss at 6w4d and I know my OB/GYN tested my blood to make sure I wasn't RH negative and told me if I was I'd need Rhogam. I'm not sure about earlier than that but you probably should at least call the doctor and ask.

I'm so, so sorry for your loss. :( lots of hugs.

Hey, Thanks so much for answering NamelessAria! :>

I called my dr. early this morning and she ordered an HCG blood draw. They didn't get get back to me until the afternoon(I went into the lab around 3:30 pm) so I'll have the info in the morning. She said that depending on the result(they need to confirm the HCG/pg, i guess), I'll have to go in and get the Rhogam shot tomorrow.

thanks again!*hugs*
