If a Rh-negative woman and a Rh-positive man have a child, the fetus may have Rh-positive blood inherited from the father. (Approximately half of children born to a Rh-negative mother and a Rh-positive father are Rh-positive.)

  • If this is the mother's first pregnancy, Rh incompatibility is usually not an issue.
  • This is due to the fact that the baby's blood does not normally enter the mother's circulatory system during pregnancy.
  • However, during the birth, the mother's and baby's blood can mix. If this occurs, the Rh protein is recognized as a foreign substance by the mother's body.
  • It may then begin producing antibodies (proteins that act as defenses against foreign cells) against the Rh protein.
  • Rh-negative pregnant women may be exposed to the Rh protein, which may cause antibody production in other ways as well.

Due to these changes within the heart, repolarization has to happen. This process refers to returning the cardiac muscle to its resting state, and the opposite process is depolarization.
