huh... ok from what i understand i don't think there should be compensation, the doc tried to make sure the blood group was correct before the birth so i think he showed good faith and therefore can't be responsible if the info was wrong he didn't personally run the test at the lab

As long as the meds did not hurt her I don't think she should be compensated for them. My daughter is also RH negative and I know about the shots before and after the birth, my sister is RH negative and she also had the shots. What other meds did this person have to take as precaution? I know of none. The woman was not harmed and I assume the baby was ok as well. She should thank her lucky stars she has a healthy baby and enjoy it and forget about trying to get rich off of a mistake. Bet she would be singing another tune if she had been negative and the doctors didn't find out in time. Mistakes happen, that's why they call them mistakes and why they call us human beings instead of Gods.

It doesn't look like either mom or baby were harmed. No tests are 100% and lab errors do occur. What would the compensation be for, anyway? I can't see that this person suffered.
