Erythroblastosis fetalis can be prevented by treating Rh incompatibility between the mother and fetus. This involves giving the mother Rh immunoglobulin (RhIg) during pregnancy and after delivery to prevent her immune system from producing antibodies against the baby's red blood cells.
What is Erythroblastosis?
IgG molecules.

IgG is the class of immunoglobulin responsible for the development of erythroblastosis fetalis. It can cross the placenta from a mother who is Rh-negative to a fetus who is Rh-positive, leading to hemolytic disease in the newborn.
erythroblastosis is a very serious condition for approximately 4,000 babies annually. In about 15% of cases, the baby is severely affected and dies before birth.
Hemolytic disease of the newborn is known as erythroblastosis fetalis
Erythroblastosis fetalis is a potentially life threatening blood disorder in fetus or new born infant. It happens when the mother possesses Rh negative blood where the foetus posses Rh positive blood which turns it weak anaemic nd jaundiced or in severe case death of the foetus occurs..
The first child born of a female is generally not at risk for erythroblastosis fetalis because the mother's immune system has not been exposed to the fetal blood antigens and therefore has not produced antibodies against it. However, by the second pregnancy there is a slight risk if the blood type of the fetus is not compatible with the mother's blood type.

Well there is an ABO and Rh incompatibility, then baby is at risk of jaundice or erythroblastosis fetalis.
