A friend of my mum?s has a daughter who has recently had a baby. The baby has jaundice and is currently under the UV lamp in the Scbu. The doctors have told her that there is a problem with blood type and that because the baby is type A negative, and the mum is o negative, the baby will have to have blood tests for the foreseeable future, once she has come off the lamp. I?ve been looking this up on the net and can only find info that relates to there being problems if a baby is positive and mother is negative, but she?s adamant that the baby is negative as well just a different blood group. Does anyone know anything about this and what the implications are?
