HIV can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy through the placenta, allowing the virus to enter the fetal bloodstream. Additionally, transmission can occur during childbirth when the baby is exposed to the mother's blood and bodily fluids. Lastly, breastfeeding can also pass HIV to an infant if the mother is HIV-positive.
No, the child has to be born first.
Custody of children cannot be passed around like custody of purses or shoes. This arrangement will have to go through the courts.

No. The obligation of child support does not arise or become enforceable until a child is born.
No, it is not true that HIV cannot be transmitted from a mother to her unborn child. Without preventive measures, HIV can be transmitted during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. However, with appropriate medical interventions, such as antiretroviral therapy, the risk of transmission can be significantly reduced. Many HIV-positive mothers can give birth to HIV-negative children when they receive proper care.
I'd advise you to go to a family law attorney in your state and discuss the situation, rather than attempt to handle it yourself. Let your lawyer handle all communications with the father of your child and his spouse.
Legally, since the woman is the one to carry the child and give birth, it is her decision and only hers whether or not to have the child. The courts have supported this many times. Morally, however, it should be a decision made by both parents. The position of the mother should not have precedence over that of the father.
No
Titania refuses to give up the child to Oberon because she has grown fond of the child and doesn't want to part with it. Additionally, Titania believes that the child's mother was a loyal follower of hers who passed away, and she wants to honor her memory by caring for the child.
