Your baby might inherit the alpha thalassemia but normally this trait does not cause any health problems unless you're both a beta trait.

Today went for thalassemia registry to do blood test. The nurse told me that there is a 25 % rate baby might be tested with Thalassemia major as both of us have Alpha thalassemia trait. Waiting for the result. Hope everything is OK.
