A multigravida mother with the bad obstetric history presented at 32nd week of pregnancy to the hospital with a complaint of decreased fetal movement. She had a history of 11 transfusions during her past abortion. Because of fetal distress, emergency C section was performed. The baby developed anemia and jaundice on day 3 during her stay at NICU. The mother is O positive, and baby is B positive. Rh kell phenotyping was performed and the mother was found to be C+ c- E- e+, K-, father C-c + E-e +, K - and that of the baby was C- c+E- e+, K-. Antibody screening was also done, and the results revealed that the mother has anti-c and anti-B. The baby received phototherapy and was discharged with stable vitals. 1. What is the most probable reason for the development of anemia and jaundice? 2. Is it possible that the mother's history of multiple transfusions aggravated the situation? 3. How about the mothers bad obstetric history and multiple abortions? Is RBC alloimmunization a possibility?…
