HIV and Pregnancy: Essential Information for Expecting Mothers

At Rousmed Medical Practice, we are committed to supporting the health of mothers and their babies. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant and are living with HIV, here’s what you need to know:

Key Points

1. HIV Management: With proper medical care and antiretroviral therapy (ART), women living with HIV can have healthy pregnancies and reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to their babies.
2. Prenatal Care: Regular visits are crucial for monitoring your health and the baby’s development. Your healthcare provider will help create a tailored plan that includes ART.
3. Delivery Options: Depending on your health and viral load, your doctor may recommend either vaginal delivery or cesarean section to minimize transmission risk.
4. Postpartum Care: Continue ART after delivery, and discuss breastfeeding options with your doctor, as HIV can be transmitted through breast milk if the virus is not well-controlled.

Emotional Support

Pregnancy can bring unique emotional challenges. Don’t hesitate to seek support from healthcare providers or support groups.

At Rousmed Medical Practice, we’re here to help you through your pregnancy journey. If you have questions or need to schedule an appointment, please reach out.
Your health and well-being are our priority!
