Typically a pregnant woman gets tested for immunity to rubella (rubella IgG antibodies), and a positive test means she has adequate protection against rubella, which can cause birth defects. In contrast, you report a gest for rubeola antibodies. In order to interpret the test, more information is needed regarding the type of test done (IgM versus IgG). Please check with your health care provider for information specific to your situation.
