A 2 months old baby whose parents are blood type are AB+ and O.?
Question:
Answers:
you need to know the baby's blood type. it's going to be either A or B..and that's neither of the parents' type. in a pinch, the o type could be used, but blood banks typically use the right type blood.
Firstly - what is the baby's blood type
Secondly - the corresponding type should be matched with the baby's blood before transfusion (corresponding ABO and Rh blood types do not guarantee a match!)
Thirdly - if you are totally stuck, you can give O negative blood to the baby.
O negative is the universal donor (and hence the blood bank would hound you for your blood repeatedly). It has no ABO antigens (or ID flags, if you like) and it has no Rhesus antigens (ID flags) and so can pass for okay usually.
However, there are dozens of other minor blood types (Duffy, Kell, McLeod) and they may cause incompatibility.
O is the universal donor so I would go with O. It depends on what the baby's blood type is as well. Is it RH negative or positive?
