7 months and hiv positive can this affect my babe-in-arms, though?
what level of cd 4 count that will cause my baby to be artificial
Answers: It is the fact that you have HIV, not your CD4 count, that may cause your tot to be infected. Women who are pregnant and have HIV can take medication that can reduce the risk that the infant will be born with HIV. (If you were HIV+ at the start of your pregnancy, that is when you should own started taking the medication.) Having a C-section reduces the risk further. These days, with appropriate treatment during pregnancy, and C-sections, the risk of transmission of HIV from mother to infant is about 1%.
CD4 count doesnt really matter. The problem is the virus going to the baby during birth.
