is there any possibility of no childbirth when partners have same blood group?

---

if male and female have same blood group( A+ and A+) then, is there any possibility that they will not give birth to child?
Obviously any set of partners might fail to give birth to a child.

For some reason there is a myth that 2 people of the same blood type will have particular trouble conceiving/give birth to disabled children/whatever.

Blood type is usually irrelevant to pregnancy. The most important exception is rhesus incompatibility, where a negative type woman who repeatedly carries positive type children finds her body becomes increasingly hostile to them, resulting in miscarriage, etc. It's only possible for a negative type mother to have positive children if the father is positive, and more importantly the problem can be warded off with injections. Positive women carrying negative children don't have the same problems.

Since the only possible problems are with incompatibilities between blood types, having the same blood type eliminates the possibility of any problem. The only reason I can think of why people might think it's a problem is a confusion with inbreeding/incest - 'mixing blood of the same kind' or something like that. Since you refer to a particular type (A+), you presumably don't mean that.  (+ info)

can a female with A1 -ve blood group and a male with B+ve blood group reproduce a healthy baby?

---

will it be possible to deliver a healthy baby and undergo a normal delivery time if a wife with A1 -ve blood group and the husband with B+ve blood group reproduce?will there be any issue over the baby development? i need a genuine answer. no fun here please.
From what I understood from Mircobiology, your baby will be healthy, but your next child may have complications with anemia  (+ info)

Why do i have a different blood group then my parents?

---

my fathers blood group is A -ve, my mothers blood group is O+ve, but mine is O -ve, how did this happen??
Someone with A type blood can have one A and one O allele (or two A alleles). AO produces an A blood type because A is dominant. Someone with an O blood type can only have two O alleles. So for you to have O - you inherited an O from both you parents. Your mother has two O alleles (OO) and your father must be AO.

Rhesus factor is similar - the positive allele is dominant, so your father has to have two alleles for Rh -ve (-/-) in order to have a Rh- blood type. Your mother must have one +ve and one -ve allele (+/-) if you have -ve blood - because you need to have inherited one from her, too.

With your parents, you are OO and -/-

My wife and I have same blood group of O+ve. What could be our childs blood group?

---

I have blood group O+ve and also my wife have the same group. So I think I have OO and my wife also have OO. That means that our child can be only OO. What about the + sign? How does it work? Can anybody explain something about the possible child's blood group?
Your children will definitely all be Blood Type O, but they could be positive or negative.

The trait for being negative for the Rhesus factor (Rh-) is a recessive gene, while the trait to possess Rh factor (Rh+) is dominant. So while both you and your wife are Rh+, you could still each carry a gene for Rh-. If that is the case, there is a 25% chance with any of your children that they would be Rh-.  (+ info)

Why the child having positive blood group is at risk when the mother is having negative blood group?

---

Why the child having positive blood group is at risk when the mother is having negative blood group?
Because when the mother's blood group is Rh+ and the baby is RH- or vice versa, the mother's immune system recognizes the pregnancy as a foreign body and produces antibodies against it. Sometimes the mother's immune system will destroy the pregnancy. It is however more likely that the baby will go to term without any problems yet during the delivery when blood is transferred between the baby and the mother the baby will then become very ill and possibly die. This is why the mother is given an injection to prevent the production of antibodies against the baby. As long as the injection is given the delivery poses no threat to the babies life.  (+ info)

does a child have to have the same blood group as either of the parents?

---

For example, a boy has blood group AB+ while his mother is B+ and father is A+. Can he receive blood from any of the other three groups,or only from his own group?
I used to know this, so I'm a little rusty. Every person has two sets of alleles for every gene. Sometimes one of those alleles is dominant and the other is recessive. The parent who has a B type blood has two possible sets of alleles: a B type allele on one and an O type on the other OR a B type on each allele. There are no other combinations. The O type is recessive and is not expressed. If someone has an O type blood, he has an O type trait on each allele. A person with A type also has two possible combinations of Alleles. Either an A type allele on one and an O on the other or A type alleles on both.

You might be able to tell which parent had what on both alleles by looking at two or more generations, but, as in the case that you describe, you'd have to look at more than two generations. That is because the person with AB type blood has only one possible combination: an A type on one and a B type on the other. Obviously, he inherited the B type from the mother and an A type from his father. Both the A and B types are dominant genes and are both expressed. However, if either the mother or the father had also had the recessive O type allele, the boy could just as likely had A type or the B type. You only inherit one allele from each parents (so that you have a total of 2 alleles for each gene), so if the father had B types on each Allele, the boy would only inherit one B type and if the mother had an A on one and an O type on the other, he would either have B type blood or AB type blood as he would would have inherited either the A type or the O type from his mother. You can't tell until you test it.

Persons with AB type can receive type A, B, AB, or O type blood. They are universal receivers.

Now for the Rh factor. Positive or negative type blood is also an inherited trait although the gene for positive or negative blood is inherited independently from the A and B and O genes. There are only two types: positive or negative. Positive is a dominant trait and negative is a recessive one. As such, if a person has a negative Rh, that person has a negative type on each allele. If the person has a positive Rh, the person could either have two positive type alleles OR one positive and one negative. Since you inherit one from each parent and both parents are positive and the boy is positive, that means that both parents either have one positive and one negative or both positive alleles. Also, the boy may have one positive and one negative or both positives. You can't really tell without looking at several generations.

The bottom line is that the boy can have the type you describe from the types of the parents you describe and he is a universal receiver of any type of ABO blood (but the parents need either O blood or their own type of blood).  (+ info)

can any blood group people donate kidney to some other blood group people?

---

my friend is a patient he needs kidney. doctor says only same blood group people should only donate?
The doctor is correct. The donor and recipient must be the same ABO blood group, although with kidney transplant the rhesus factor eg A+ vs A- is not important. Although it will obviously become important if the recipient requires a blood transfusion during the op.

The most difficult part of matching is tissue matching and this involves very complex genetic components relating to the immune system to be closely matched in order to prevent graft vs host disease and rejection of the kidney.  (+ info)

How can I find out what my blood group means.?

---

I have been told I have a rare blood group, I would like to find out what it means. I am AB RhD pos R,R, What do all the letters mean?
I have included a link where you may be able to find out more about your blood aswell as copying and pasting the page for you.
The ABO System

If you have blood group A then you've got A antigens covering your red cells.

Blood group B means you have B antigens, while group O has neither, and group AB has some of both.

The ABO system also contains lots of little antibodies in the plasma, antibodies being the body's natural defence against foreign antigens.

So blood group A has anti-B in their plasma, blood group B has anti-A (you probably get the picture at this stage).

To complicate matters though, group AB has none and group O has both of the antibodies.

Which means giving someone blood from the wrong ABO group could be fatal.

The anti-A antibodies in group B attack group A cells and vice versa.

Which is why group A blood must never be given to a group B person.

Group O negative is a different story.


The Rh system

Still with us?

Well, it gets more complicated here on in, because there's another antigen to be considered - the Rh antigen.

Some of us have it, some of us don't.

If it is present, the blood is RhD positive, if not it's RhD negative.

So, for example, some people in group A will have it, and will therefore be classed as A+ (or A positive).

While the ones that don't, are A- (or, wait for it...A negative).

And so it goes for groups B, AB and O.

This effectively doubles the number of different blood types to be matched, because you shouldn't mix blood type A+ with blood type A-.

84% of the population is Rh positive.

(And yes, that means the other 16% of the population is running around with Rh negative blood.)  (+ info)

What is a cheap effective ay of finding out your blood group without going to the doctor?

---

I have seen some testing kits for sale on the internet for about 10 pounds, but are they any good and is there anything cheeper availible? My doctor said I ould have to pay about 20 ounds for a blood test
If you are old enough and fit you could kill two birds with one stone! Become a blood doner. You will be doing a kindness for your fellow man and will be given a card with your group on. It won't cost you anything and you get free tea and biscuits.  (+ info)

Is it a good idea to tattoo my blood group type on my arm?

---

I dont like tattoos for their "trendyness" and their permanence, but i m thinking of having one. My blood type is stuck with me, so i m thinking of an "A-" on my arm. WHat do you think?
It's a good idea if you ask me...a lot of people get dog tags tattooed on themselves for this reason. It has their name and blood type, as well as any medication allergies...it they have them.
I actually know an elderly man who got his tags tattooed on his wrist because he had a history of memory loss and seizures.

I like the idea....
I hope this helps...GOOD LUCK!!!!!  (+ info)
