We have discovered today that our blood work has come back suspicious. Some suspicious things that may have been found are Rh Factor- It identifies whether you have a certain protein on the surface of your red blood cells. The condition is treated with a series of vaccinations given late in pregnancy or right after birth. Iron Level - if you have too little hemoglobin in your red blood cells. This is a sign of anemia. If you're anemic, your doctor or midwife may recommend that you take an iron supplement and they will advise that you eat more iron rich foods. German measles - If you do not have immunity, your doctor or midwife will advise you to avoid anyone who has the infection. If you develop German measles during your pregnancy, it could cause severe birth defects in your baby such as blindness, deafness, and heart problems. Hepatitis B - If you pass this liver disease to your baby during your pregnancy or after birth, it could cause serious liver damage. If your baby is at risk for catching the infection from you, injections of antibodies will be given to the baby right after birth.
