me and my husband have just started trying for our second child. Our first was born with hdn as i was getting anti-d i didnt think that this would happen he had to be given a full exchange transfusion. i know that this will happen again in the next

. He was induced and was taken straight for some tests. He had a 90% exchange transfusion in scbu in the early hours after his birth and thank God, everything worked perfectly all his iron, sugar etc levels were a match and after alot of photo therapy

, 2 days I think!? HIHope you feel better soon.  I had Iron after i had my little boy, my levels were very low that i was advised to have a blood transfusion (but i said no).I was put on the Iron tablets but i jsut couldn't stomache them, so i had

after ivf this year, i was pregnant with triplets. at week 14 problems were discovered. the identical twins had twin to twin transfusion syndrome. at week 19 we lost the recipient twin. at week 26 i gave birth to twin girls weighing 1lb 15oz & 1lb

!!! xxxx I had a low placenta but unluckily for me it moved even further round so I ended up with lots of admissions due to bleeds, a c-section and a blood transfusion! Not trying to put you off but i think you do need to know the other end of the scale

was also a contributing factor, as the iron carries round the oxygen in your blood - i would agree mention to the m/w at your next visit and keep an eye on your iron level. (I had 2 blood transfusions after the birth and have suffered no further ill effects

, but when I was 23 weeks pregnant I had a massive bleed.  I was so scared I thought I was losing him.  We rushed to hospital and the Docs were going to do a blood transfusion as I'd lost so much blood.  They did a scan and my little boy was absolutely fine

of blood.  I had a blood transfusion a few days later as my iron levels were so low i could barely move and looked like a china doll.  This really effected my time with marcus as i just wanted to be like the other mums on the ward bright as buttons

will attack the unborn baby.  This can cause the baby to be anemic, requiring blood transfusions through the womb.  I'm scared of needles, so this would be my worst nightmare I'm not an expert, just a worried person like you with rhesus neg blood

think with identicals you will need to have a C-section at around 36 week because of twin to twin transfusion risk.  With non-id's you can for natural birth if twin one (lower down twin) is head down.  My two were both breech so I had a c-section at 37
