BY FAR the best explanation of hemolytic disease I have seen or read, either online or in person by doctors or nurses. We have been researching this extensively trying to decide whether or not to give this shot to my wife during her first pregnancy. We will, but we will make sure it contains no Thimerosal/Mercury. Thank you for helping us to make an informed decision.
Husband was o+ where I was o-,first two pregnancies turned out to be o+ blood group. Third pregnancy baby was o-. This was very enlighten to watch.Thank you
Jeff Hawkins -BEST of luck to you! I wanted to go to med school back in the day,but things just never worked out. Hope you have a great career! I'm sure you will help many.
I'm Rh Negative, and I've had four healthy children, my doctor told me straight with my first child..I had to have a injection in my bum after every birth ...but was straight forward with no complications ..NHS thank you 🙏🌈
Excellent! I plan to show this to every ER caregiver I know who lets a 26-week mom, who may have suffered mild trauma, walk out without a T&S and, if required, RHIG. We're sitting in Blood Bank looking (shocked) at discharge paperwork. . .while on the phone, chasing down mom, and yes, writing up the incident.
Superb description of the use of passive immunity therapy by giving anti-Rh antibody immunoglobulin to the mother to suppress development of anti-Rh IgG by the mother. Dr. Campbell, you are the teacher we all wish we had had. I’m sure I speak for many when I say “We are all thankful for your lucid instruction”.
Simply awesome sir. You have explained such a complicated topic with such ease and perfection, so easy to grasp it this way. Thank you for this wonderful video. Please keep uploading more of such videos.
My Aunt (by marriage) had AB negative blood and had a hard time carrying her son. She might have had a previous miscarriage, I don't know for sure as I was very young. I think they did a cesarean early and he was born with jaundice. I always wondered about this and found this video very interesting. Great teaching. I think they told her not to have any more children at that time, it was the 1960's. It was hard for her, as she always wanted a daughter.
Sadly I wasn't giving the anti-D shot within the time frame. I'm currently expecting my second Rh incompatible baby. This was a great video for us mom's to be experiencing hemolytic disease of the newborn..
This is a great informative video, much better than the “I don’t know” reply I had from the nurse at the hospital when I asked how the anti d injection worked. I was hoping you may be able to explain a few more things for me please as I am struggling to find out certain information. Is it true that the anti d injection is made from rh - male doners who have recently had a blood transfusion, or who have volunteered to be injected with rh + blood? I have also read that the doners are sourced from north America for UK patients, I just wondered why this is the case, is it true? Also, when offered the injection at 26 weeks, are the doctors 100% sure that the baby is rh + or is there still a chance the baby is rh -. Are there any complications to injecting a pregnant Mum at 26 weeks if her baby is rh -? Also, if a woman only planned on having one child, do you believe the research for receiving an anti d injection both at 26 weeks and at birth outweigh any health complications if not administered at all for a first born? Sorry for all the questions, I’d just like to understand it all a bit better. Thank you
Thanks alot doctor ♥️♥️♥️♥️+u really finally make me understand this topic 😿hope u made another videos abut allo and auto antibodies//other blood grouping///Ab screening//Ab Identification//blood transfusion reactions.....thank u again ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you doctor. My brother told his girlfriend that he was O- as he only remembered he was O. She is O- and I reminded him that he is O+ like me. Since he didn't know what this meant and never heard of this before but I remember learning this in school I decided to look up your video. Oddly enough the only reason I knew his blood type is because at a kidney walk we were encouraged to know our blood type and the Canadian Blood Services were there volunteering to take blood type tests and we learned there he is O+ and his daughter is A+ (her mother is A+) so my brother didn't have to worry about RH factor differences before. Thank you.
Thank you!!! Question: about when (1960’s, 1970’s) did newborns start being treated for hemolytic disease? -And are some middle-aged adults, who had Rh neg. moms, now having various anemia’s/bone marrow disorders?
I had this problem with my daughter as I am rh- I did have the rogan shot but, had to bring my daughter back to the hospital as her bilirubin was very high. She didn't have to have blood transfusion they told me they put her under some type of light. My daughter tested in the top 5% of the entire US and in college they created a scholarship for her and put her in their mentally gifted program and she graduated on time with three degrees. I am blessed and thank GOD she didn't have any brain damage! The government should test people the way the used to before marriage to let them know the risks and to make informed decisions. What no one talks about are long term effects if there are any or not.
I’m just wondering how anti d antibody injections are used to protect the baby from getting haemolytic disease, can’t they cross the placenta just like the normal antibodies and destroy the feral red blood cells? Why is that not the case? I understand that they protect the mother from getting sensitised and producing anti d antibodies but I’m not just not quite sure how giving anti d injections doesn’t cause the same consequences
Watching this because I am going through this.m.im rh- and I had a blood transfusion and they gave me rh+ blood and now im pregnant and at high risk pregnancy due to this ....I am so terrified 😔😔
Is there any treatment for Anti E? My wife is Antigen ee and I am Antigen EE. Our second child is due in 6 weeks. We dont think there will be major issues with our next child that is due(aside from being induced if the blood flow is showing issues or tider levels increased) but we intended on having 2 more. From different resources I have watched and read state that with 3rd,4th,5th etc etc children the risk for Anemia is higher with those children then they were with the 2nd. Also why isnt this testing done more for parents? This could have been completely prevented if they just tested both my wife and I and given her the shot?
Dear Dr. Campbell, I am pregnant with my fourth child, and was told I have Antibody M. Can you explain what this means as it was new to my doctor. Thank you!
I was born in 1974 the fourth of five children. My mom decided to not do RhoGAM with me because she was listening to a chiropractor/naturopath… They did not do blood exchange or treatment after I was born. My teeth came in black I’ve always been hyper active. I am trying to find information on lifelong Complications. I have a high IQ but many autoimmune diseases
What are the long last effects of a baby who was born with erythroblastosis in 1959, before they treated the mother. Blood transfusion took place, but I'm unaware of other treatments. Could this person have hemolytic disease?
Hello Dr Campbell.My wife is pregnant and she is Rh -.We are a bit concerd about the Rhogam shot and i wonder what is your opinion on this aspect now. Specially after covid period when there were so many lies.Thank you!
I got my Anti-K antibodies through two blood transfusions, as I had a Hemoglobin of 6 when I delivered my son. I am now pregnant again and have shown anti-K antibodies in my blood test at 8 weeks pregnant. Why don't they automatically administer the Anti-D vaccine after blood transfusions? It would've saved me all this worry and possibly the life of my baby. I didn't even know this was a possible side-effect of needing a blood transfusion.
I doubt you'd be able to answer this as I know your busy. Is there any benefit to avoiding this if I am A+o- and my wife is A-O-. Thanks for the great video also
Dr Campbell..ditto that this was an incredible explanation! I can't thank you enough ! SOS I have a question ..I am pos ; mom neg and dad pos ..mom can't recall if she ever got the shot. Prior to me, mom's first pregnancy was a miscarriage at about 3 months mom said. I have had a LOT of very unique health problems and wonder ..even if a baby is not born with this horrific condition, if mom say had some antibodies hanging around when I was (taken out my forceps ) born (including very bad nose bleeds; anemia ; cyncop / passing out as a child ..gastro and Endo issues .. endometriosis ..I could go on all day !) so that even a few of these antibodies could possibly have negativity permanently impacted the health of the child. I have a feeling I am not the only only one with this question born in the 60s...but if you would prefer to private message me the answer instead of "taking a leap" at s public answer I would be so grateful either way ..thank you again for this incedible video !
Dr. John a big thank you, first for your Covid-19 vid's (thats how i found this one) second for this one. i am RH-blood born with VSD. you have filed in the gap i did not get in my head at the time. to young to get i was only 15 hit me with it all + the Dr (a top guy full resptet.) , how i was then, to what to look out for in the years to come. i have push my luck in the past big time. but with Covid-19, on i play it safe. your a top old school doctor.
Thank you so much doctor. My wife is RH negative and I'm RH positive and we recently got our first baby boy. She got the shot around when she was 6 months. Fast forward 3 months boom the baby is RH positive.. the doctors told us to buy Rhogam and bring it to him withing 72 hours after delivery. We live in a third world country specificly in Ethiopia. Long story short we could not find the damn Rhogam any where in the city and I was so frustrated knowing the next pregnancy could end up in complication if the baby is RH positive like the first one but I had to travel to another city some 300 kilometers away and find the rhogam and we ended up finding one. But I'm not sure if it was real rhogam considering the lack of regulation of stuff that comes in and out of the country the pharmacy we bought it from gave us unprocessed rhogam with its water. Does such thing exist? Powder rhogam shot with its water and just mix up?
Hi doc. I look over the internet about the vice versa which my wife is rh+ and me with rh- but I don't get satisfying explanation on this. We manage to get our first child but we struggled to get the 2nd baby. FYI, my wife had gone through 3 silent death babies after our first born. I am suspecting that the rhesus was playing a big part in it. I wonder why rh+ mother with rh- fetus is not applicable with this disease since they are not compatible and my wife rh+ should do bad impact on the rh- fetus just like your explanation but vice versa. Hope you can help me with this
I am rh- and have been sensitized for seven years now. Iv had two healthy positive sons since and am currently in my third trimester. With my last son my titer levels were 1.2 currently its 0.1 how is that possible?
Is it possible for anti d antibodies injections to be compromised now with the state of blood it is made from now after the mandates (spike protein?). Please consider answering. I have 4 healthy children and am healthy myself (unv). I want more children but Im considering the possibility of not taking the rhogam if it could be compromised and just hope for the best. Im not sensitized. All children are rh+ and the father is also.
Mother RH- FATHER-RH +. Born a " blue baby", if you will (cyanotic) TOTAL blood transfuse.Was 2nd child.Half brother from different father.No problem w/him. I'm ok. They didn't have any immunization back then tho.Her 1st husband was also blond/blue like her..My father was black hair/brown eyed. Informative video.Thx.
Hi and thank you indeed for your explanation. I want to ask you if a mother has already developed an anti d antibody in her blood after her first pregnancy is there any treatment for her if she wants to get a healthy child in her next preganancy?
Yes! Rho-gam shot around 7 months of pregnancy and within 72 hours there after. I have an older sister that has 4 children, younger that has 2, I have 2. ALL healthy! I suffered a miscarriage which the doctors told me might have been from a miscarriage I wasn't even aware of and therefore didn't receive the Rho-gam shot. But who knows...
What happens when the baby is born with hdn as a result of incompatibility, did not receive a blood transfusion, but did have jaundice, enlarged liver and spleen, and distended abdomen? Are there medical complications as the child ages and into adulthood?
I am O- and my then husband was O+. I was not given an anti-D injection during other after birth. My second baby was stillborn at 26 weeks and I was given 2 anti-D injections following this birth. Until menopause, every month I had my period, the injection sites became large red hot lumps. Any explanation please Dr Campbell. I was told not to become pregnant again and I didn't.
Thank you Dr. Campbell.....since I am O- and Rh- , this explains why I was NOT able to carry my 4th pregnancy beyond my 1st trimester...I remember the nurse was very late [just shy of 72 hour] in giving me the Rh shot after I delivered my 3rd child......my blood basically disintegrated the 4th one.
I'm A- and husband is B+. I've had 2 miscarriages and one healthy birth. Our daughter is 2 and healthy but little Stinker has O+ blood so I've had to take rhogam both times I miscarried, when I was 28 weeks, and after I delivered. Ive always wondered if this is why I've miscarried, bc our blood types are incompatible.
Thank you for the explanation! A quick question.. when giving the anti-D injection to prevent haemolytic disease, wouldn't the anti-D antibody travel through the placenta and cause haemolysis of the fetal red blood cells? Or is it simply because the administered anti-D injection does not have enough Antibodies to cause such an problem? Many thanks!
It actually needs to be given within 72 hours after delivery. If the mother was given the Rho-gam shot at 7 months, all is fine. Hope this helps. I'm A negative, had two pregnancies. I had a miscarriage that the doctors believed was due to an early miscarriage that I wasn't aware of and didn't receive the shot. I was blessed with a healthy daughter and son. :)
How can the igg antibody comes in contact during 2nd baby?? If through ambical coard!!! Then why not the first time the blood of rh- blood can't mix up with the rh+ blood of foetus??
An Obstetrician's simplistic solution to a grander cosmological chaos (although higly paradoxical). The gynaecologist could have simply contraindicated D Factor (Rhesus Positive) incompatiblity, it's likely Complication (Fetal Hemolysis et al); and instead crafted an in vitro safe prophylactic conception, therein allowing a romantic incompatible biological coupling viably. A logic of Prevention is worth Encyclopedias of recklessness. Corpus Sanus Mente Sana....
im RH neg blood i didnt have anti D with my first, or with my 2nd child i did get it either, i became very anaemic, iron drip, he was born month early 7lbs 3oz he was jaundice and had to go under special light, he suffered no real health issues his 30 now, with my 3rd child i started getting anti-D injections during pregnancy, and 24 hrs after delivery.
Am 20 weeks pregnant and am rh negative , an ICT test was conducted and it turned positive and the the gyna said I would not get the anti D injection, that they would only monitor the feutus through the scan.....am frustrated because I don't know of what will happen. This is my second pregnancy and the first one turned to be rh positive... During the first pregnancy I was given anti D at 28weeks and at birth .kindly advice me doctor
I was originally told I was b negative with my first child and then after I had my son and then last year had a miscarriage I got told I was b positive not negative I've had countless blood tests done and they say b positive with anti jka antibodies but the other day I got more bloods at 34 weeks pregnant and now they are saying they don't know whether I am b positive or b negative, will this affect baby as they are unsure of what I am? I didn't have this antibody until after my loss
BY FAR the best explanation of hemolytic disease I have seen or read, either online or in person by doctors or nurses. We have been researching this extensively trying to decide whether or not to give this shot to my wife during her first pregnancy.
We will, but we will make sure it contains no Thimerosal/Mercury.
Thank you for helping us to make an informed decision.
Thank you a lot this 14 minutes are absolutely not wasted I can now fully understand hemolytic disease of the newborn forever.
Husband was o+ where I was o-,first two pregnancies turned out to be o+ blood group. Third pregnancy baby was o-. This was very enlighten to watch.Thank you
Great videos. I'm in med school and use these to untangle the overly complicated way faculty feel this material needs to be presented. My thanks!
Jeff Hawkins -BEST of luck to you! I wanted to go to med school back in the day,but things just never worked out. Hope you have a great career! I'm sure you will help many.
Yes, the is over-complicating a common problem.
So beautifully and simply explained. Thank you so much. This is a 8 year old people and still helping doctors like me. Hope you are doing well
I'm Rh Negative, and I've had four healthy children, my doctor told me straight with my first child..I had to have a injection in my bum after every birth ...but was straight forward with no complications ..NHS thank you 🙏🌈

It seems to be the most beneficial videos in youtube ... my Greetings from Egypt
Thank you!!! Question: about when (1960’s, 1970’s) did newborns start being treated for hemolytic disease? -And are some middle-aged adults, who had Rh neg. moms, now having various anemia’s/bone marrow disorders?
Yes.i am looking into that because im rh - and dont know mom blood type because she passed on.I have blood disorder diagnosis now.
I had this problem with my daughter as I am rh- I did have the rogan shot but, had to bring my daughter back to the hospital as her bilirubin was very high. She didn't have to have blood transfusion they told me they put her under some type of light. My daughter tested in the top 5% of the entire US and in college they created a scholarship for her and put her in their mentally gifted program and she graduated on time with three degrees.

How old was your daughter when you had to bring her in
I’m soo lost getting the news today😢😢ThAnkU

Why does he pronounce rhesus the same as recess?
Dear Dr. Campbell, I am pregnant with my fourth child, and was told I have Antibody M. Can you explain what this means as it was new to my doctor. Thank you!
thank you, you are the best on youtube!
The Rh immunization also needs to be repeated for every pregnancy, not just the first one because it wears off in 4-6 weeks?
I was born in 1974 the fourth of five children. My mom decided to not do RhoGAM with me because she was listening to a chiropractor/naturopath… They did not do blood exchange or treatment after I was born.

thank you! well explained
It won't happen if the mother is Rhesus positive and the baby is Rhesus negative?
Well done!!!

I doubt you'd be able to answer this as I know your busy. Is there any benefit to avoiding this if I am A+o- and my wife is A-O-. Thanks for the great video also
thank you so much!!
Does this ruin the chance of having a healthy baby? Mentally and physically???
Wish you were my professor!
Fascinating.
Mom said my little brother was jaundiced when he was born. Do you think that's because of antibodies?
Dr Campbell..ditto that this was an incredible explanation! I can't thank you enough !
SOS I have a question ..I am pos ; mom neg and dad pos ..mom can't recall if she ever got the shot. Prior to me, mom's first pregnancy was a miscarriage at about 3 months mom said.

Beautiful explanation!!!
Dr. John
a big thank you, first for your Covid-19 vid's (thats how i found this one) second for this one.
i am RH-blood born with VSD. you have filed in the gap i did not get in my head at the time. to young to get i was only 15 hit me with it all + the Dr (a top guy full resptet.) , how i was then, to what to look out for in the years to come.
i have push my luck in the past big time. but with Covid-19, on i play it safe.
your a top old school doctor.
can the injected anti-D IgG not cross the placenta and attack the fetus?
Did u get any explanation ..if u have please write down..
Thank you so much doctor. My wife is RH negative and I'm RH positive and we recently got our first baby boy. She got the shot around when she was 6 months. Fast forward 3 months boom the baby is RH positive.. the doctors told us to buy Rhogam and bring it to him withing 72 hours after delivery. We live in a third world country specificly in Ethiopia.

Does such thing exist? Powder rhogam shot with its water and just mix up?
Dr john please tell me where u teach eryhthroblastosis foetalis??
Hi doc. I look over the internet about the vice versa which my wife is rh+ and me with rh- but I don't get satisfying explanation on this. We manage to get our first child but we struggled to get the 2nd baby. FYI, my wife had gone through 3 silent death babies after our first born. I am suspecting that the rhesus was playing a big part in it.

Hope you can help me with this
I am rh- and have been sensitized for seven years now. Iv had two healthy positive sons since and am currently in my third trimester.
With my last son my titer levels were 1.2 currently its 0.1 how is that possible?
Is it possible for anti d antibodies injections to be compromised now with the state of blood it is made from now after the mandates (spike protein?). Please consider answering. I have 4 healthy children and am healthy myself (unv). I want more children but Im considering the possibility of not taking the rhogam if it could be compromised and just hope for the best. Im not sensitized. All children are rh+ and the father is also.
Mother RH- FATHER-RH +. Born a " blue baby", if you will (cyanotic) TOTAL blood transfuse.Was 2nd child.Half brother from different father.No problem w/him. I'm ok. They didn't have any immunization back then tho.Her 1st husband was also blond/blue like her..My father was black hair/brown eyed. Informative video.Thx.
Hi and thank you indeed for your explanation. I want to ask you if a mother has already developed an anti d antibody in her blood after her first pregnancy is there any treatment for her if she wants to get a healthy child in her next preganancy?
Yes! Rho-gam shot around 7 months of pregnancy and within 72 hours there after.
I have an older sister that has 4 children, younger that has 2, I have 2. ALL healthy!
I suffered a miscarriage which the doctors told me might have been from a miscarriage I wasn't even aware of and therefore didn't receive the Rho-gam shot. But who knows...
What happens when the baby is born with hdn as a result of incompatibility, did not receive a blood transfusion, but did have jaundice, enlarged liver and spleen, and distended abdomen? Are there medical complications as the child ages and into adulthood?
Can two negatives produce a positive blood type?
I am O- and my then husband was O+. I was not given an anti-D injection during other after birth. My second baby was stillborn at 26 weeks and I was given 2 anti-D injections following this birth. Until menopause, every month I had my period, the injection sites became large red hot lumps. Any explanation please Dr Campbell. I was told not to become pregnant again and I didn't.
extremely helpful explanation sir!
But,whats the case if the father is Rh -ve and mother Rh +ve?
kashish shah Only happens if the mum is RH negative
Karensa St Clair thank you! although ik it now lol
Is the beginning of a pregnancy
Thank you Dr. Campbell.....since I am O- and Rh- , this explains why I was NOT able to carry my 4th pregnancy beyond my 1st trimester...I remember the nurse was very late [just shy of 72 hour] in giving me the Rh shot after I delivered my 3rd child......my blood basically disintegrated the 4th one.
Sending you x hug I’m very sorry x
I'm A- and husband is B+. I've had 2 miscarriages and one healthy birth. Our daughter is 2 and healthy but little Stinker has O+ blood so I've had to take rhogam both times I miscarried, when I was 28 weeks, and after I delivered. Ive always wondered if this is why I've miscarried, bc our blood types are incompatible.
I WAS BORN BEFORE THE SHOT A+ BLOOD O- MOM WAS VERY SICK AT BIRTH
Thank you for the explanation!
A quick question.. when giving the anti-D injection to prevent haemolytic disease, wouldn't the anti-D antibody travel through the placenta and cause haemolysis of the fetal red blood cells? Or is it simply because the administered anti-D injection does not have enough Antibodies to cause such an problem?
Many thanks!
+Jackson Pat Its OK, as you give the anti-D shortly after the birth. If you gave it before, I expect there would be some trans-placental transfer.
Sir,
u said that the injection should be given within 24 hrs after the first delivery, but wont she have developed antibodies by then
It actually needs to be given within 72 hours after delivery. If the mother was given the Rho-gam shot at 7 months, all is fine. Hope this helps.
I'm A negative, had two pregnancies. I had a miscarriage that the doctors believed was due to an early miscarriage that I wasn't aware of and didn't receive the shot.
I was blessed with a healthy daughter and son. :)
How can the igg antibody comes in contact during 2nd baby?? If through ambical coard!!! Then why not the first time the blood of rh- blood can't mix up with the rh+ blood of foetus??
Thank uuuuuu so muchhhhh
I have so many questions, my son was born with G6PD deficiency, is this what happens to him? And why did both my girls not get G6PD?
what if the second baby is by a different father with o negative blood
منور يا عمي جون شرحك جميل جدا
An Obstetrician's simplistic solution to a grander cosmological chaos (although higly paradoxical). The gynaecologist could have simply contraindicated D Factor (Rhesus Positive) incompatiblity, it's likely Complication (Fetal Hemolysis et al); and instead crafted an in vitro safe prophylactic conception, therein allowing a romantic incompatible biological coupling viably. A logic of Prevention is worth Encyclopedias of recklessness. Corpus Sanus Mente Sana....
Not sure I understood your overall contention, but thanks for the comment.
I am Risus negative nil How does this happen . A friend of mine was Races negative The doctor said we're completely different
im RH neg blood i didnt have anti D with my first, or with my 2nd child i did get it either, i became very anaemic, iron drip, he was born month early 7lbs 3oz he was jaundice and had to go under special light, he suffered no real health issues his 30 now, with my 3rd child i started getting anti-D injections during pregnancy, and 24 hrs after delivery.
Am 20 weeks pregnant and am rh negative , an ICT test was conducted and it turned positive and the the gyna said I would not get the anti D injection, that they would only monitor the feutus through the scan.....am frustrated because I don't know of what will happen. This is my second pregnancy and the first one turned to be rh positive... During the first pregnancy I was given anti D at 28weeks and at birth .kindly advice me doctor
Is every negative blood type Rh-?
Yes
Can the blood cross over during a miscarriage not just birth ?
I was originally told I was b negative with my first child and then after I had my son and then last year had a miscarriage I got told I was b positive not negative I've had countless blood tests done and they say b positive with anti jka antibodies but the other day I got more bloods at 34 weeks pregnant and now they are saying they don't know whether I am b positive or b negative, will this affect baby as they are unsure of what I am? I didn't have this antibody until after my loss
So after pregnancy, blood group of mather may change from -ve to +ve??? ""
