Good grief !!!!  Why can't the mother breastfeed?  Show me the research that
says mothers with Rh incompatibility have any increased risk of anything with
breastfeeding (assuming the Mom has plenty of milk and the infant breastfeeds
well)!
There in NO contraindication to breastfeeding or breastmilk (when the infant
can be fed) with Rh incompatibility!!!!  IF any antibody got into the milk,
it would be broken down and used for it's protein in the stomach and small
intestine.
