Many sources say that in the case of an O- mother, and an A or B + father, then there is no need to give RhoGAM.
Because even if fetal RBC's enter the mother's circulation, then her anti-A/anti-B would dispose of the fetal RBC before the mother has a chance to create Rhesus Ab's.
What's everyone else's take on this? What if such a scenario came up on the boards, give RhoGAM anyway???
