  1. erythroblastosis fetalis

    Erythroblastosis fetalis, also known as hemolytic disease of the newborn, is a severe blood disorder that can occur in a fetus or newborn when the mother and baby have incompatible blood types. The mother's immune system recognizes the baby's blood as foreign and produces antibodies against it, which can lead to destruction of the baby's red blood cells, causing anemia and other serious health problems. This condition most commonly happens when the mother has Rh-negative blood and the baby has Rh-positive blood.
