Well I wish u well. Keep doing what your doing and I'm positive one will come your way this summer.?

Reading this have given me so much encouragement. I am also taking med-surg and I have my first exam this Monday. U hit everything on the nose and it sounds like u have already begun to think like a RN. Appreciate your post and the pointers I believe they will be helpful for upcoming exams. Thanx!!!?

Btw I humbly accept the clarifications.?

Your so right. Thanx for the clear up. Have a good life.

Hey. Nice to meet another junior level nursing student!!!! I'm also interested in externships this summer. I'm from Pa though. And I got to a school called Indiana university of Pa. Just wondering what school you go to in NY I'm assuming? And how is your school experience? What classes are you taking this semester?

Thank you for your corrections!!! As I have read up I did confuse the Rh+ and Rh- mother. It would be an Rh- mother who is carrying a Rh+ fetus that would have problems. AGAIN it does not become an issue with the first born but rather those who come after the firstborn. And Rhogam is given to the Rh- mother as you stated not the Rh positive mother. Apologize for any confusion to the OP. and to the one who posted after me...I don't need to be hostile in your corrections. As no one knows everything!!!! I am grateful that u corrected the post. But take a chill pill all the TUDE and know it all attitude is NOT NECESSARY!!!! I'm believe we all are here to learn from one another. To the OP again apologize for the mixup with the Rh- mother. But the other info still remains the same. Thank you. I'm a lover not a fighter!!! Haha

Sorry just retread your post again. Think I'm responded in correctly. Haha. Are u asking if both the mother and fetus is Rh- would the mother launch an antibody attack against the fetus? If so the principal is still the same. She wouldn't because the Rh is the same as her. It only becomes a problem when the mother is Rh+ and the fetus is Rh-. It is not even a problem ( from my understanding) if the mother is Rh- and the fetus is Rh+. And again this situation becomes a problem when she conceives for the second time , it does not affect the first born. So Rhogam is always given to a Rh+ mother during her pregnancy and again after the delivery. Hope this helps.?

Thank you both very much for the info. I will def try to locate a medical recruiter for more info.
