If I carry some ones baby thru invetro who has lupus can i get lupus? By being a carrier?

Lupus is not contagious, and is an auto-immune disorder much like an allergy in which the body's immune system attacks its own tissues and joints. If you were, as a surrogate mother to carry the biological child of a woman with lupus there is no risk that you would develop the disease. It would be impossible to "catch" lupus from the mother or her unborn baby.

Surrogacy too is just like a natural pregnancy and the blood of the baby and blood of the mother never mix. The placenta serves as a barrier and filter through which nutrients, oxygen and waste products are passed. Even a real viral or bacterial illness has little chance of crossing the placenta with the exceptions of toxoplasmosis and measles to name two. But note that in this instance the mother is the carrier and is a danger to the unborn baby, not vice versa. I don't know of any genetically passed down syndromes or illnesses that can infect the birth mother during surrogacy.

I hope that puts your mind at ease. Carrying a fetus of a mother with lupus would not put you in harm's way.

absolutely not. Lupus is an auto immune disease, possibly linked to genetic and environmental factors. There is no way to 'catch' Lupus from anyone. It's like asking if you carry a baby with brown eyes and you have blue will your eyes change colors.

Lupus is not contagious.

That is a risk, probly a very small one, but make sure know matter what the out come is that you want to do it no matter what

Not a chance.
