EBB 329 - Q & A about Blood Types, Rh Incompatibility in Pregnancy, and the Rhogam Shot

In this episode, we're exploring the fascinating science of blood types and blood incompatibility in pregnancy. You'll learn about the basics of blood types, how they are inherited, and why knowing your blood type is crucial—especially during pregnancy. Rebecca and Sara also discuss the implications of Rh incompatibility, ABO incompatibility, and other rare blood types on maternal and fetal health.
