  1. aFootnote: 469 HIV infected pregnant women were recruited from 469 Households (HH). More-than-one-time pregnancies of the same woman during study period = 27. Hence total HIV infected pregnancies = 469 + 27 = 496. Abortion = 10; Stillbirth = 9.Twins = 10.Total Mother-Child pairs = 496 + 10 = 506. Total live births = 506–19 = 487
