Curious--do you know your child's blood type?

4Speedy

I just realized that I don't know my son's blood type.  I am Oneg and DH is Opos so I think that both of our kids must be type O.  (But I really don't remember how that works from high school biology).  I know DD is positive because I had to have a rogham, shot after she was born.  But for the life of me, I can't remember if I needed the shot after DS was born.  I'll have to make it a point to have the pedi check their medical records because now I'm kind of curious.

Do you know your child's blood type?

Yes because when she was born they wrote it on the "Its a Girl" tag that was in her basinette in the hospital. Plus we are both O+

I had to ask DH.  I know I should know but I'm not good with details -- good thing he is! 

CleoKitty

Nope. I'm not sure if either of my kids has ever had their blood type even tested.

I can't quite remember.  I know they told me in the hospital.  And I know that DD is rH negative because they said she'd need to know when she's pregnant (why they made a big deal about it when she was 1 day old, I'm not sure, because I'm O+, it didn't affect us at the time).

 I THINK DS is O+ too, because I remember thinking "oh, like me".  But, I'm not entirely sure.

Yes, A+ because both DH and I are.

Both of my children were typed at birth. They're both A+, like me.

Yes, because both DH and I are O neg.

I know mine from donating blood, but don't know DD's.  I don't think they ever tested for it.  DH doesn't know his blood type, either.

Yes because I'm B negative and DH is B positive. I got the initial rhogam shot when pregnant but didn't need one after the boys were born because they were also both B negative.

MrsCali_Bride

Yes, I do.  All three of us are O+

Nope, because I'm B+ and they don't do blood typing on mom's that aren't type O or not a - Rh factor.
