It is possible, however it is extremely rare.

I'm not sure how 'rare' it is though since there are 3 of us with Blood Type O born to an AB Blood Type mother and an O Blood type father. We are not of European/Asian descent either.

From what I've learned, there are different ways this can happen. One is called the Bombay blood type. Chimera blood type is another.

In certain Asian groups, some of these folks have a rare version of the ABO blood type gene called cis-AB. People with this gene version have an AB blood type but can easily have an O child.

So it is possible. 'How', I'm trying to figure out myself.

How can a child that is born with type AB blood?

the child takes the A gene from one parent and B from the other. And the both of parent are supposed to be AB blood type, or one A blood type and the other B.


Could a parent with AB-blood type have a child with O-blood type?

No.


Can b positive parent have child with a positive blood?

A B+ parent can have a child with A+ blood. The other parent must be type A or type AB for this to occur.


Can parents with AB blood type have a child with O blood type?

"No, if each parent has AB then the child can be A, B or AB but not O." Not exactly. Yes, it IS possible for a child with Blood type O to have a parent with the AB Blood type although it is extremely rare. There are different reasons for this. One is the Bombay blood group. There is also Chimera, or 'vanishing twin'. In certain Asian groups, some of these folks have a rare version of the ABO blood type gene called cis-AB. People with this gene version have an AB blood type but can easily have an O child. I am an O blood type child of an AB blood type parent, although we are not of Asian/European descent. I also have other siblings who are Blood type O so I know it is possible.


Do your children have to have same blood as you?

No - children do not have to have the same blood type as the parents. For example, if one parent has blood type A and the other has blood type AB, the child might have A, B or AB blood types. (For the child to have B, the parent with blood type A would need to be heterozygous, Ao)


If you are AB plus can your child have the same blood type as you?

The child can have the same blood type. It is possible if the child obtains the allele IA from one parent and IB from the other. So if a person with blood type AB provides IA or IB and the other parent provides the other allele, then the child may have the same blood type i.e. AB positive.

Can you be the father if the baby don't have mine nor the mother blood type?

Yes. A mother with blood type A (AO) and a father with blood type B (BO) can have a child with blood type O (OO), one O from each parent. An AB parent and a A (AO) parent can have an B child (BO), an AB and a B (BO) can have an A (AO). An AB parent can never have an O child because it requires two recessive genes and an AB parent cannot donate a recessive O.
