Ok. I will write it in several series whe!ever I get time. (1)the first pregnancy I discovered myself being a hep b carrier during the screening test for marriage registration in china. It was a very difficult time for me. Thanks to my hubby support, I eventually decided to have the wedding . Back that time, I was told there was no good med to deal with this virus. My hubby told me simply forget myself being abnormal and move on. That is what I did and how I got preganant with my daughter in USA. When I visited my ob at the first time, I told him that I am a hep b carrier. He simply did nothing and said it was very common virus for Asian people. He did do some screening test to ensure that my liver function well. My daughter got hep b immune shot right away after birth. I even breast feed her ( the ped recommended it and said it was fine for baby because of the shot she got after birth) . So there was nothing special happended at this pregnancy. My daughter is almost preteen now. She is a very healthy and smart kid. But she did not developed hep b immune although she did not get the virus either.
( 2nd pregnancy) Around 10years after the discovery of being a hep b virus carrier, I also found that my virus load in my blood was high. this time, I decided to visit a specialist. The specialist prescribed a new medicine called viread to me and routine ultrasound test. My Hep b virus in blod went to non detectable level half year after being on medicine. With the hope of developing immune, I was being on this med for almost 3 years withou any luck. One day, I told the specialist that I wanted quit the med since I want to have another baby. Unfortunately, he told me I had better continue the med. otherwise, there is good chance of outbreak of the virus after the stop of the med. I felt I was hooked. After researching on the Internet, I decided to follow the specialist suggestion.
Thanks did nothing screening

2nd pregnancy-2nd part Both my hubby and I debated long time to decide whether to have a second baby. In the meantime, I visited my current ob 2 times for consultation on the risk of having a baby while taking viread everyday. Viread is considered as category 2 medicine. Category 1 is proved to be safe clinically, while category 2 is considered to be safe based on lab test on animal but lack of evidence ciinicallly. The ob suggested me to get preganant while taking the medicine. He think it is fine and the risk of having birth defect is same level as that without taking med. after half year debating, I was ready to take the risk mentally. When I told ob I was preganant, he ensured me that he would take good care of me. What he did was putting me intom high risk level list. Hence I had many ultrasound visits and office visit. It was a very anxious pregnancy exprerience during the first 20 weeks. After the milestone if 20 weeks, I was very relaxed since there is nothing I can do. I cried badly when my ob handed my second baby to me right after birth. He is a very precious gift. I told him: let's have a wonderful time together with the family as many others do.

Thx. I did some research on this med. there is government funded web which gather the cases of preganant mother with daily dose of viread and performed statistic analysis on the birth defect rates comparing with normal pregnancy. They updated result every year. So far, The number of gathered cases are relatively small but the birth defect rate is similar level as normal pregnancy. My ob even suggest breast feed. But the specialist suggest not to do since there will be small trace of med in the milk. I followed the specialist suggestion. My second baby turns out a healthy and strong baby.
