Sickle cell disease occurs from genetic changes that cause abnormalities in hemoglobin molecules: 1  Hemoglobin A (HbA) . 2  HbA is the hemoglobin molecule found in normal red blood cells during childhood and adulthood. 3  People who do not have sickle cell disease generally have this type of hemoglobin in their blood cells.ickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder in which the body produces abnormally shaped red blood cells.

Many women also find it easier, when asked how pregnant they are, to answer in weeks instead of months, because pregnancy is generally a count down.
