ABO incompatibility can sound intimidating, but once you understand the “why,” the nursing care starts to click. In this episode, we unpack how maternal and newborn blood type differences can lead to hemolysis, rising bilirubin, and newborn jaundice. We’ll walk through what to look for, what to do, how to know treatment is working, and what families need to understand before going home.
