Can I have a vaginal delivery?

BHIVA guidelines recommend vaginal birth for mothers on ART with undetectable viral load less than 50.

This is unless there are other complications.

You and your doctor will decide how you plan to deliver your baby (called mode of birth) at 36 weeks. This decision will be made after reviewing your viral load results.
