Testing blood type Do all babies get their blood tested at birth (for blood type not screening) and if so where would I…

i dont think so only if your blood type needs the anti d.. im a rhesus negative and both mine are a positive so have needed it both times xx

That's what I thought! I was chatting to an American lady about my twins blood type and how I don't know it and she said she's concerned I don't know!

As long as I'm not going crazy! Lol x

Don't it state in their red books? X

I don't think so. I don't need to know I'm just curious. Me and hubby are A+ so they are either A or O and they are identical so the same as each other. X

I'm O- so they tested Bethany for the Rh factor (she's Rh-), but they didn't tell me if she's A or O.

OH is A-, so we knew by 28 weeks that she'd be Rh- as well.

They tested holly to see if positive or negative as I'm negative but I don't know if she's A- or O-

Is this something I should know because I have no clue what I am or what my kids are lol xx

I only know what I am as I give blood. I didn't see anything on their papers x

I only found mine out in pregnancy and then had to have that anti d injection

Only if your a negative and have needed the anti d in pregnancy.

I have no idea what my sons blood type is either!

I have no idea of mine or Freddie's!! Should I?

I only know mine cuz they put it in my yellow book when I was pregnant with Bear.. I have no idea what Bears is tho xx

I know mine from booking in wen pregnant they check ur blood type in a+ but no idea what my kids r

My babies were tested as my blood type is negative but apparently the result isn't recorded anywhere in the paperwork you come home with. I asked at my doctor surgery too whether it shows on his record and they said no. Not sure if it would be written in the detailed maternity notes that are kept at the hospital but I think you have to pay to access them.

they don't write it down i don't think, i just got told in person xx

Im rhesus negative so i needed the Anti-D injection, i needed the anti-d with both my sons after delivery because their blood type is positive but i didn't need it with my daughter because her's was same as mine. If both you and your partner have positive blood group they wont tell you.

The twins are A+ same as me, it says in their book somewhere xx

I have no idea what any mine are xx

I only know mine from the booking bloods because I'm O- and need the anti D injection. I don't know exact blood types but I know ones negative like me. The other ones different from me because I had to get another Anti D when he was born. They never told me their blood types although could be wrote down somewhere, I've never noticed it in notes etc though xx
