High-Risk Pregnancy

Anti-kell antibody

Does anyone else out there have the anti-kell antibody? I got news recently that I had this, which puts my baby at risk for hemolytic disease. Super scared and feeling quite alone....

  • I do. I was told I got it 6 years ago when I delivered my second son. Then surprise, I found out last month I am pregnant. How far along are you?

    This is what they think Henry VIII had, explaining why so many of his children died at birth or were sickly. It's the 3rd most common type of blood incompatibility. Not that anything will happen to your baby...it's so easy to treat now.
  • I was just informed that I have it also. Still feeling left in the dark about it
