Answer:

during pregnancy, birth, and during breastfeeding

Explanation:

Mother-to-child transmission of HIV is called vertical transmission. This transmission can occur during pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding. Therefore, it is recommended that all pregnant women and their sexual partners be tested for HIV / AIDS twice: once in the first trimester of pregnancy and once in the last trimester. The woman should also be informed about the possibility of preventing transmission to the baby. Testing and treatment should be offered to both the baby and the woman and their partners.
