During one of my pregnancies, the foetus stopped growing, and I eventually miscarried. Because the embryo died two weeks before I started bleeding, I was informed during a scan that I was having a missed- miscarriage.
A few months later I once again became pregnant but was shocked to be informed that my missed-miscarriage had affected my blood and chances were that my body would destroy the foetus! I was horrified.
Fortunately, my daughter is a fighter and now five. 
However, I was unable to carry through further pregnancies, and after three additional miscarriages
I gave up extending my family and concentrated on my miracle child. 
During the early pregnancy, I was told that the blood of the dead foetus had come in contact with my blood and that I need to carry an NHS Blood and Transplant Antibody Card with me all the time since the change in my blood is for life.
That I could during the pregnancy or both my child and I could after birth need blood transfusions. Fortunately, we didn't. 
Five years later, I am still confused. 
Group: A RhD positive
Antibodies: Anti-Cw
But what does it really mean?
Can I still donate blood?
What about if I am involved in an accident and need a blood transfusion?
Do I need to show my card when I attend general surgery?
Do I need to tell my Fitness and Gymnastics centres?
Should I carry a Blood Alert bracelet?
What about my child could her blood have been contaminated too resulting in complications when she becomes a woman and wants to start her own family?
Can any of you enlighten me, please?
Thank you.
