No rhogam shot after miscarriage in 2006. just had a miscarriage at 13 weeks in nov. 2012. o neg. bloodtype. could this be related to not receiving shot?

Unlikely: This is an unlikely cause. However, there are blood tests the doc can run on you to see if you have been sensitized in any way to the rh factor due to that earlier event.It is a test that is often performed early in pregnancy, so it may have been part of your 2nd pregnancy workup but never discussed (if it was negative).
