Rhesus incompatibility
Below is an email we received. If anyone has any information that is relevant, please add it to the comment block below.
Thanks!
Hi Everyone,
Hope you are all well! I have a question for the institute about birth trauma and rhesus compatibility. I am the second child of a rhesus negative mother - myself and my brother being rhesus positive.
I'd be interested to know if the institute has done any research on this specific birth trauma - where the mother has built up an immune response to the second rhesus positive child - which (mother's white blood cells) then may attack the child during the birth process?
I only know a couple of other people that have had this birth issue - the two other people I know have had anxiety issues (as have I) and both of these people had a failed suicide attempt (thankfully not the case for me). There is a certain isolationary aspect each of us have - not completely unsociable, still very friendly, but need some shut away private time - maybe more than most. Of course, as this is just three people, I could easily be making a correlation where there isn't one. So I was curious as to whether you have come across this issue in your many years of research.
Thank you for your time!

Interesting question, but no, I've personally never seen anyone with this condition.
Having said that, if for some reason you have symptoms that are causing problems, you might have a generational issue involving the placenta's filtering out of antibodies from the mom. If you were a client, I would start with symptoms and regress, looking for the first moment they started then target any generational traumas also at that moment (along with the regular biographical trauma).
All my best!
