Can I hold a baby

[jcalex71]

I think i might have HIV, can I hold a newborn.  Is there any risk of someone with HIV holding a newborn baby?

Your question shows how ignorant you are on HIV. HIV has been around for almost thirty years and you have to come here and ask such a stupid question? You should expect a stupid reply.

Thank you Nursegirl for your input, that is what I was looking for, a reality check!  I guess i let my anxiety get the best of me.

Not sure what would prompt such a comment.  I am nervous and looking here for help, sorry.  The penatrative sex was with a legally aged stripper.

Are you serious?

First of all.....I highly doubt you are HIV+ from that description...second of all...HIV is classified as a "sexually transmitted disease" for a reason!!!!!!!!

COME ON PEOPLE.......this is NOT the common cold....you cannot get HIV in ANY of the following ways:

Kissing, drinking from another's cup, eating with another's fork/spoon/knife/spork/any other utensil of your choice, sitting on a toilet seat, from a public restroom, from a public shower (even WITH a strange gooey substance stuck on the bottom of your feet), HOLDING A BABY, hugging, licking, sucking nipples, kissing nipples, taking pics of nipples.....etc etc .

CASUAL contact carries no risk.  HIV is NOT an easy virus to transmit.

Sheeeeeeesh.

Let us know when you have penetrative sex with a baby so we can call the law.

because i had 1 (15) second vaginal sex experience (i inserted into her) since my last negative test 18 months ago.  the beginning of this year I had a strange rash, I now have a sore throat and white tongue that will not seem to fade.  The sore throat comes and goes.

Only if you want to hold a baby. No.
