Hi! My blood type is A+ while my wife is B+. Someone told me that our blood type isn't compatible and that we will have a hard time getting pregnant. Is that true? Thanks!

Hi, and thanks for your query on eHealth forum!

No, from the point of pregnancy, your blood group is compatible. The problem arises when a woman is Rh –ve and her husband is Rh +ve. This increases the chance of a Rh+VE baby. If the baby is Rh+ve and mother –ve, then mother's blood develops antibodies against Rh+ve baby and miscarriages occur. Usually first baby is spared.
Anyways, you need not worry about all this as you are both Rh+ve. Hope this helps. Take care!
