With my third baby we chose to delay cord cutting, and I'm RH-, hubby's RH+
(all three kids positive, too). Of the three, he was the only one who
didn't get jaundiced. My first was born in the hospital, and the cord was
cut pretty quick, and she was the most jaundiced. The second was born at
home. The cord wasn't cut immediately like it was in the hospital, but I
don't think we waited for the cord to stop pulsing. She was mildly
jaundiced, and it cleared up pretty quickly. Just my lil' anecdote...
