Can babies be infected with HIV/AIDS from drinking their mother's breast milk?


the mother also has HIV/AIDS

Anyone, not just babies can be infected with HIV/AIDS from drinking breast milk.

Yes, unfortunately.

yes any bodily fluid will pass on aids/hiv

If the baby and mother are otherwise healthy,
it shouldn't be a problem.

The issue is the mother's blood getting into the milk, and
then the bloody milk somehow gets into the baby's
blood.

That requires some sort of laceration in the milk
gland and the Baby's GI tract.

Not impossible, but not very likely.

yes, babies can be infected from moms breast milk.

HIV is one of a very few contraindications to breast feeding.

Yes, a baby can also get HIV from the breast milk of an infected woman.

Most definitely!

i am sure there may be a risk. but its not then end of the world if you cant breast feed your baby. plus if the mother has hiv, she has a bad immune system, and really the breast milk doesnt have much nutritional value or advantage over bottle milk.

Yes, delivery and breastfeeding are a way for a baby to be infected if mom has the virus.

Absoltely, yes. This should never be done, for the safety of the child.
