Hello all! I'm Rhonda-Marie. Currently expecting baby number two here in early Feb. Hoping for a homebirth this time around and trying to collect information to give to my midwife on thalassemia minor in pregnancy. Since my husband is not a carrier there is no risk to the baby. The main concern is that my hemoglobin is lower than most women. TIA!!!

I'll do some checking on this for you. I vaguely remember this disease from my training.
