Are you HIV-positive and pregnant or considering having a baby? You are not alone. Living with HIV does not necessarily take away your desire or your ability to have children. The good news is that advances in HIV treatment have allowed many HIV-positive women to have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies.
The usual HIV antibody test is not used to test for HIV in babies. Babies born to HIV positive mothers will always test HIV positive using an HIV antibody test. This is normal and does not mean your baby has HIV. Your baby shares your immune responses that the antibody test looks for. It sometimes takes up to 18 months for these responses to gradually disappear. The baby will be tested using an HIV PCR DNA or RNA test. These tests look for virus in the babyâs blood. In the UK, it is good practice to test the baby on the day she or he is born. The test is repeated after six weeks and again at three months. If all these tests are negative, and you are not breastfeeding your baby, then your baby does not have HIV.
