Can you please give me information on the right procedure in getting pregnant when you are HIV positive?
Answer
Thank you for your question.
There are different options as regards getting pregnant when you are HIV positive.
The options take into consideration whether your partner is also HIV positive or whether they are HIV negative.
As you have not indicated this in your email, I am sending you our general guide on HIV, pregnancy and women’s health. The guide includes detailed information on the various options available. Please follow this link to this guide to HIV and pregnancy for more information.
Best wishes
Hi Bella,

Hi Precious,
I’m sorry to hear that your man is worried about you being around to look after your children. This is a very normal worry that HIV positive parents have. But if you both have access to treatment, and are careful to take this properly, then you can plan to live long and healthy lives. Being HIV positive shouldn’t stop you doing anything you would have before you found out you were positive.
Do you have access to ARVs?
am hiv+ and i have a son but i want other baby, but my man say we cant have a baby because we ll die n leave our babies
Hi Wanisha,
I’m sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis. How are you coping?
Are either of you on treatment?
Lots of couples where both people are HIV positive have babies together. Please see our pregnancy guide for more information. Let me know if you have any questions after looking at the guide and I will do my best to help.
