Question

Testing HIV positive when 6 months pregnant…

Hi, I tested positive after 6 months of pregnancy. Will my baby be safe?

Answer

Hi there

Thanks – this sounds like a difficult time, but HIV meds will help both you and reduce the risk to you baby.

Getting your viral load to undetectable before the birth will really help protect the baby too.

    You should apologise to your partner. You have no right to make another person attend a medical visit due to your paranoia. Stop whining, grow up and accept responsibility for yourself and the things you do.
