A member asked:

Does your babies blood type end up being either what the mom is or dad is? or can it be differen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Neither parent determines the blood type of the baby. The baby could have the same as one of the parents or a third, depending on the types involved. When you post a question, the more specific you are with things like the blood types, the more likely we are to give a specific answer.
