Good day to you: You want to see your obstetrician any time now and whenever you become pregnant to start prenatal care as early as possible, that would include the Rhogam injection at 28 weeks and at labor, and whenever there is a miscarriage or bleeding during pregnancy, also monitoring your blood pressure and other parameters early in pregnancy. Wish you a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby

Rhesus neg: If your husband is rhesus negative then your negative status is not an issue.
