Brief Answer:
Rh sensitisation

Detailed Answer:
Hello, there is not much of a problem in pregnancy to neither mother or child.
Only problem that can occur is due to rhesus sensitisation that is the Rh negative mother when carries a rhesus positive child there can occur sensitisation in mother which will not cause any problem in first child but in second pregnancy there can be jaundice and anaemia in baby.

This sensitisation is very easily prevented by giving mother an injection of immunoglobulin in 28 weeks of pregnancy and then repeated within 48 hours of delivery.
I hope the discussion was useful and in case you have further queries I will be happy to help.

Brief Answer:
anemia and jaundice

Detailed Answer:
No there has been no case reportedso far.
The only problem is anaemia and jaundice of baby and thus intrauterine death or swelling of body of baby due to sensitisation and that is also easily preventable by just simple immunoglobulin injection.
Nothing much to worry.
