For Rh incompatibility to occur, the mother must be Rh-negative and her fetus Rh-positive.
The husband's Rh factor is a concern only as it relates to the possible Rh factor of the fetus.
If the fetus is Rh-negative, the blood types are compatible and no problems should occur.
If the fetus is Rh-negative, the blood type with the mother is compatible. The husband's blood type does not enter into the problem.
