Mrbillybadass User ID: 33666046 United States 04/11/2013 01:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lol this thread isn't funny or strange in anyway. -OP: "hey guys what blood type are you?, oh worry not why I asked just know that it's good to know and that you donate as much as possible. Drink plenty of fluoridated water...hey btw what blood type are you?" Anybody that is a rh-...from now on I would seriously keep that information to yourself, and quit shouting it from the rooftops to reinforce your own belief that your "special". |

Felt like i just walked out of Church :) My blood type is A negative aka Rh negative. And for that Red Cross cause me special because of my blood type is only 6 percent of the U.S population, so blood from me is scarce. I feel the need to donate more and help others. And wish others to do so too! Quoting: notta .... and are you Eating according to your blood type ? Search PubMed for info on the damaging Lectins in all foods and adjust your diet to avoid them ( eat according to your blood type , " Eat Right for Your Type " by Dr. Peter D'Adamo - friends and I follow it daily with great results ). il have to look into that |

When things go wrong people are going to hunt you down and use you as a universal blood bag.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 37857936 United States 04/11/2013 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's weird. My whole life, I have constantly asked what my blood type was whenever I had blood work done, but I have yet to be told. There was always the excuse of "oh, we forgot to do it". I have no blood related health problems and there has never been any secrecy surrounding my health in any way so I have no idea why I can't be told my blood type. Quoting: OnTheFence Both my parents told me their blood types ... I just can't remember at the time of typing this. I need to re-ask them. I found charts online to help narrow down what one's blood type is based on your parents. It's not exact, but it's better than nothing. I am diabetic, and I've been told numerous times that I can't donate because of that ... that my blood is useless. *shrugs* Any truth to that?

jimd User ID: 37801653 Malawi 04/11/2013 02:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A baby's blood type can be different from the mother's blood type. It's all simple genetics--the child gets a mix of both parent's genes. Everyone has two copies of the "blood type" gene. A and B are both dominant over O. This is because the A gene makes the A antigen, and the B gene makes the B antigen, and the O gene doesn't make anything--it's basically just a placeholder. This means: AA and AO make type A blood. BB and BO make type B blood. AB makes type AB blood. OO makes type O blood. Now, each parent gives one of their copies to the child. Imagine that the mom has type A blood, with type AO genes, and the dad has type B blood, with type BO genes. Here are the possible mixes the child could get: A (mom) B (dad) : AB blood. A (mom) O (dad): A blood. O (mom) B (dad): B blood. O (mom) O (dad): O blood. So 25% of the time, this couple would have a kid whose blood type matches the father. Another 25% of the time, it matches the mother. Another 50% of the time, it doesn't match either of them. There are some mixes where the baby will *always* have a different blood type from both parents. For example, say the mother is type O, with OO genes, and the father is type AB, with AB genes. The possible mixes for this couple are: O (mom) A (dad): Type A blood. O (mom) B (dad): Type B blood. The child will never have the same blood type as either parent. The +/- part of blood types (like you see "B+" or "O-") refers to the Rhesus factor, which works in the same way. Everyone has two copies; + is dominant over -; + makes the Rhesus factor, and - doesn't do anything. Of course, this just uses simple genetics like you might learn as a kid. The real picture ends up being more complicated--other genes end up effecting the final blood type, random mutations, that sort of thing. Source(s): There are many "blood type calculators" that tell you what blood types the baby might have given the parent's blood types. All just use simple genetics.
