(Spanish version of "Pregnancy and the HIV Test")

Women who are HIV positive can pass HIV to their babies during pregnancy, during delivery, or through breast-feeding. According to the CDC, mother-to-child transmission is the most common way children become infected with HIV--nearly all AIDS cases in U.S. children are because of mother-to-child transmission. Yet not all women will pass HIV along to their babies, and the odds will be lowered if the mother receives treatment during pregnancy.

"El Embarazo y la Prueba del VIH" explains these basic facts for patients and emphasizes the importance of HIV testing for pregnant women. The message for your patients: knowing whether or not you have HIV can help you take important steps to protect your baby.
