If a pregnant mother is HIV +, would the child be born positive also ?

Answer 1

Not necessarily, actually 80% of the women who are HIV+ bare children who are HIV negative. usually the hospital would not know if the child is HIV +/- until 3 months have passed. usually when the child is tested ( whom mother is HIV +) tend to have a positive result, BUT this might be a false positive ( b/c the mother immunoglobins that react against the HIV in her body can be transfered to the baby, but not the virus). In our body there are five immunglobins (Ig) ( M, A,D,G). only the IgG can be be transferred from the mother to the baby, and is the one that usually is detected in the a child with HIV mother. if this immunoglobin persist for more than three months in the child then he his positive and if not then the baby is negative. even is the baby is negative mothers have to be precarious not to transfer it to the baby by breastfeeding , or any blood related contacts. I hope this would answer ur question

No, not neccessarily. There is a medication that can be taken by the mother than is proven to help keep the fetus from developing HIV in the womb. It's called Nevirapine.

Answer 4

If proper medical care is given, there is a high probability that the child will NOT have HIV. Without proper care, it is likely that the child will.
