I have just found out I am Rhesus negative and 25 weeks. We decided that it would be simpler for DP to get a blood test to see if he was also negative which would eliminate the need for me to have injections. Didnt realise how difficult this would be. He has a different GP Surgery & they wont do a test without a formal req from my midwife. Unable to contact the midwife & my surgery seems to think that him being tested is not the normal thing to do. Surely it would save resources in the long run and unnessessary worry & injections for me if we could find out his blood type. I am scheduled to have the injections at 28 & 34 weeks but would prefer only to have them if really necessary. Has anyone else had this experience?
