Yes...it is very unlikelly that the fetus will be infected in the womb...sounds odd but it's true. Also now days there are so many new drugs to prevent this. Last I knew it was an approx. 8-9% chance that the fetus would be infected, but it is possible.

Only if the mother has HIV/AIDs. If this is so, the child has a 33% chance of coming out with the virus. Currently, however, if the mother knows she has the virus from the time of conception, drugs can be given that cut the baby's chance of contracting the virus by another 33%. So, with the proper prenatal care, an infant of a mother with HIV/AIDS has an 11% chance of contracting it.

yes a baby can be born hiv positive provided mother was infected.... full blown aids at birth is not known.... the chances of hiv transmission from mother to baby is most during the birth process if it is normal vaginal delivery thts why doctors prefer a caeserian section in such high risk patients... baby can even get infected through breast milk but the risk is much lesser..... for certain medical conditions intra uterine transfusions are done for the baby which can again cause infection in rarest cases....
