Depends on which one is it, some the fetus can get as well. Herpes for instance means you have to have a C-section so the baby wont get it coming out just in case there's a tiny blister.

you are putting your baby at high risk of STDs. Your baby can be born with the virus.


The baby might get it depending on which one it is. The most common one, Chlamydia, is not passed through to the baby and the mother can just get treatment while she is pregnant. Herpes is incurable and is not passed to the baby but usually the mother have to undergo a c-section to make sure the baby don't get it on the way out. HIV is today quite safe for the baby as long as the mother gets the medication. Then the baby only have 5% chance of getting it.
Yes, but the infection happens during the delivery.
Yes they can especially if it is an active infection. Many women choose a C-section as the risk of contracting herpes to the child are decreased dramatically.
The baby is often born with it or it affects development.
Generally speaking, no. But if the mom has a STI, the baby will probably be delivered via c-section.
Not necessarily death, but mostly it would lead to that due to the acidity and the viruses passed on to the unborn baby. A baby's immune system isn't very strong to fight diseases like STIs so on that note depending on how long the mother carries the virus in her body could tell whether the baby can survive it or not.
This entirely depends on what STD it was but many does not affect the fetus at all. Ask your doctor. If there was one that could affect the fetus they need to know this before labor.
