Hi Devi,
Thanks for asking this question.
Yes you can expect a normal baby with normal deliver and you will need to give the baby HBV specific immunoglobulins injection immediately after ( upto 12 hours) along with the HB vaccine.
You should defer your treatment of HBV infection till you complete your pregnancy.
You should consult some good hepatologist ( Doctors who are experts in Liver diseases) in this regard.
Your further queries are welcome.
