HBIG

Prevention of hepatitis B infection following parenteral exposure (eg, needle stick), direct mucous membrane contact, or oral ingestion (eg, pipetting accident); prevention of hepatitis B in infants born to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)–positive mothers; prevention of hepatitis B after sexual exposure to an HBsAg-positive person; prevention of hepatitis B following household exposure to persons with acute HBV infections (eg, infants exposed to HBsAg-positive mother or caregiver); prevention of hepatitis B recurrence following liver transplantation in HBsAg-positive patients ( HepaGam B only).

Newborns of HBsAg-Positive Mothers

IM 0.5 mL. Administer first HBIG dose as soon as possible, preferably less than 12 h after birth. Also give hepatitis B vaccine. Test patient for HBsAg and antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) at 12 to 15 months of age.

I had 3 children while being Hep B chronic carrier myself. Within 12 hours of birth the baby needs to get 1rst dose of Hepatitis B Vaccine along with Hep B Immune Globulin (HBIG)
At one month old baby should get 2nd shot of Hep B
At 4-6 months old third dose
At 9 months to one year to test if baby has developed antibodies for Hep B.

Both my oldest are protected against hep B,  My newborn just got second shot recently, I hope it will work.

Your wife maybe needs to take medication if her HBeAG is possitive and negative HBeAB (shows replication of virus in her blood) higher chances to pass the virus to the baby.
