I'm 8 weeks pregnant and I've learned that my blood group is O negative while my husband's is O positive. The doctor mentioned that I need to get an injection in the 8th month. I'm feeling really anxious about what this means for me and the baby. Is there something I should be worried about here? Could you please explain?
