A member asked:

How often does toxoplasma cause stillbirth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chances: If you become infected during around the time of conception there is a less than 5% chance that your baby will also be infected. During the 3rd trimester there is a 65% chance your baby will also be infected. However, babies infected duirng later pregnancy are less likely to develop serious health problems.
