Question

If the mother is O-type blood and the father is AB-type blood, and she is currently pregnant, her blood test shows that the antibody titer is far higher than the normal value. What dangers will the baby face if not treated? Or how should treatment be carried out? She is now seven months pregnant.

Answer

If there is an ABO blood type incompatibility between the mother and child, neonatal hemolytic disease may occur, which can be very serious. Currently, there is no need for special treatment, but an early delivery may be necessary to prevent neonatal hemolytic disease. Doctor’s Question: Are there any other questions? If a child is affected by neonatal hemolytic disease, parents should immediately take the child to the hospital for treatment, avoid using non-standard medications, and use medication reasonably, closely observing any changes in the child’s symptoms and treating them promptly.
