Scary Stuff

So, I'm reading some information about being Rh- (I am O-, so a universal donor:) ) and saw this article:
http://www.babycenter.com/rhogam/

Apparently less than 15% of people have Rh-blood. Figures. Plus it CAN lead to problems which sound really frightening. I know they have ways to ensure no problems on this but I hate the 'one more thing to worry about'! Oh well, can't change my blood type:P

I also am having huge problems with my veggies. I had green beans yesterday which worked out ok but I tried to eat carrots on Monday and let's just say it didn't go well and I don't want to try that again any time soon. Unfortunately, carrots are really good for you! Luckily I can usually eat a small amount of broccoli, which is like a power-house veggie, and several other things so it should all be fine.

Amy,

I'm O- also (neato!). You get two shots, one at like 28 weeks,the other after delivery. No big deal, they don't even hurt.
My sister is also O- and a friend I work with who just had a baby a month ago is too.
You won't have any problems from this. Really.

Thanks Irene--I know it isn't a huge deal but the article was a little creepy. Drug companies selling their wares!
