Brilliant, thank you wild, I really don't want to stay in if I can help it, I hate hospitals!! xx
it shouldn't delay anything.
just found this too....
The National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) also recommends routine anti-D at 28 and 34 weeks to all RhD-negative mothers to prevent antibodies being produced following small silent bleeds, which happen in about 1 to 1.5 per cent of all pregnancies.
Anti-D cannot harm your baby and the injection at 28 and 34 weeks is strongly recommended. If, however, you decide against this, you will still be offered the injection if you have any bleeding in the later weeks of your pregnancy and again after the birth if your baby is found to be RhD-positive.
hmmm.. i peed off now why i never got told or even offered it im assuming that here where i live general practice is just to have it if a bleed. i will be asking the midwife next time i see her lol
