Dear everyone

Happy World Breastfeeding Week!

I wonder if any of you kind ladies can help me 
find out what the current Spanish HIV and infant 
feeding guidelines are?   I have found a document 
which I'm hoping gives the current 
recommendations -  Recomendaciones de la 
SPNS/GESIDA/SEGO/AEP para el seguimiento de la 
infeccion por el VIH con relacion a la 
reproduccion, el embarazo y la prevencion de la 
transmision vertical La Secretaria del Plan 
National sobre el Sida (SPNS), el Grupo de 
Estudio de Sida (GeSida/SEIMC), la Sociedad 
Espanola de Ginecologia y Obstetricia (SEGO) y la 
Associacion Espanola de Pediatria (AEP), June 
2007, available at 
<http://www.msc.es/ciudadanos/enfLesiones/enfTransmisibles/sida/docs/Recomendaciones_VIH_embarazoyprevencion_Junio2007.pdf>http://www.msc.es/ciudadanos/enfLesiones/enfTransmisibles/sida/docs/Recomendaciones_VIH_embarazoyprevencion_Junio2007.pdf 
(accessed 22 July 2010)

I realize that the above doesn't have all the 
accents etc in place - sorry.  When I pasted this 
title from the website into an email, it looked like this;

Recomendaciones de la SPNS/GESIDA/SEGO/AEP para 
el seguimiento de la infección por el VIH con 
relación a la reproducción, el embarazo y la 
prevención de la transmisión vertical La 
Secretaría del Plan Nacional sobre el Sida 
(SPNS), el Grupo de Estudio de Sida 
(GeSida/SEIMC), la Sociedad Española de 
Ginecología y Obstetricia (SEGO) y la Asociación 
Española de Pediatría (AEP). June 2007

But when I try and paste the second version into 
another document it comes out with boxes in it ....Sorry again!

Anyway, unfortunately I don't speak Spanish and I 
really need to find out what these guidelines 
recommend.  Can anyone help me out?

I need to know :
1) if possible, if these are the latest, most up to date recommendations?
2) if HIV+ mothers are advised to breastfeed, or 
are prevented from breastfeeding, eg do the 
guidelines recommend formula-feeding by HIV+ 
mothers in Spain because of the risk of 
transmission of HIV through breastfeeding?
3)  if there is any provision in the guidelines 
for HIV+ mothers to home-pasteurize their own breastmilk for their babies?

If anyone can help me answer any of these 
questions then I would be so very grateful.   If 
anyone can answer even one or two questions, that 
would be great, and I don't need a word for word 
translation unless someone already has it ...

Many thanks in advance
