What if I am pregnant?
If you get infected with Zika while you are pregnant,
you could pass the infection on to your baby. If you
are pregnant or trying to get pregnant, experts say you
should avoid traveling to countries where there is Zika
virus. If you do visit these countries, its especially important to try to avoid mosquito bites.
If you are pregnant and recently traveled to one of the
countries where there is Zika, tell your doctor or nurse.
They might want to test you for the virus. They can do
tests to see if your baby is likely to have it, too.
