Can HIV+ People Have Babies?

"If a woman knows she's HIV-positive but, she wants to have a baby, she should know what options are available to her", I said to my husband.

"Are HIV-positive women allowed to have babies?", he asked.  I replied, "Of course.  It doesn't mean she's HIV-positive that she shouldn't.  There's just the heightened risk involved."

"Because she could pass on the virus to the baby, right?  How does that even happen?"
