If a child is born to a mother with Lupus, there is a chance that the child will develop neonatal lupus, especially if the mother is Anti-Ro (SS/A) positive. In the majority of cases, the mother's antibodies will clear from the child in 6 months, however, in a few cases, the affected child will develop complete congenital heart block.
