The maternal and fetal circulatory systems are separated by the placental barrier; some molecules (for example nutrients, oxygen, and certain proteins) are able to pass through, but "blood" doesn't.

Injuries could result in the blood mixing, but this is a bad thing and is not supposed to happen to any significant degree.
