Can someone explain the Rhogam stuff to me

mrsjengle

I understand the basics about the blood, but I swear last time I was pregnant they went about things differently. I had a different doc in a different state, so either I'm misremembering or they do it differently at different practices.

This time I have to have labs drawn and the very next day I have to have the shot. Why is it the next day? Why do I have to have labs drawn if I get the shot no matter what? And, my doc said something about possibily getting another shot once the baby was born.

Help a girl out.
