If you have question about HCV, a test will answer it. If your C section is in a normal hospital it is unlikely to be infected with HCV there.

it is normal you have flctuations you have cronic hbv and especialy when you are pregnant the virus will do whatever it can to infect the baby, so hbvdna and alt rise are normal
alt rise with a low hbvdna is always good it is the immune system killing infected cells, just check that while alt is abnormal hbvdna gets lower so you will know who is winning between your immune system and the virus
also keep in mind that from 2008/2009 there are new alt normal levels alt<30 men alt<19 women, the labs don t change it because it is to common to have higher alt due to diet/alcool but those are the new normal values
