I'm HIV positive and I'm taking treatment my partner is negative what can I do if I need a baby
As I have said several times on this channel, individuals who are on regular ART, have a low viral load, and have no sexually transmitted disorders have a negligible chance of transmitting HIV sexually. In your case, I would advise you to continue taking your medication regularly and check your viral load. You must consult your doctor or HIV counsellor to have a detailed discussion on having a baby. This is because there is no way to be _absolutely certain_ that you will not transmit the virus. A small risk always exists of transmission of HIV even when your viral load is low. You must be fully aware of the risks involved and continue only once you have discussed all aspects of the same with your doctor along with your partner.
