Plan to have second baby while on tenofovir

I am on tenofovir from March 2012 when i am pregnant at week 32. At that time i had hbs and hbe both positive. I stop breastfeeding when my daughter 4 mons as i also afaid that, it could harm my baby through milk breastfeeding, until now i have not took a recheck yet, so i would like to ask specialists here that when i can stop tenofovir to avoid a"flare", since i want to have second baby soon and i dont want to take any medicine during pregnancy, especially in the first and second semester, thanks a lot in advance

when I test my blood at week 11st of my first pregnancy (18/10/2011), my HBsAg: 2381, HbeAg 1241, HBV DNA: 2.8*log10; at week30 (05/3/2012) my DNA : 5.49 log10 hichic, so I đid need to take Tenofovir from week 32 to lower the HBV DNA and reduce risk of birth transfer Till now, I still take TEnofovir and I have not do a recheck yet because I feel scared and nervous, worried much hichic....But i think it is time so I can do better for my second baby since when i carried my first child, I really did not know anything about Hep B and I also didn't know why i carry it chronically since my parents and my sister did not .Luckily, my daughter is fine as I take tenofovir during the last semester, I hope after she got the last vaccine, she will get HBs negative and enough HbsAb, it is my wish. So what should I do next with Tenofovir?

Can you post your history in Chronological order, including your e-antigen status. I've seen other members post about using Tenofovir during pregnancy, but I read some recent papers on the strategy during pregnancy, I will look that up for you.
