My mother was diagnosed with Lyme disease probably 5 or 6 years ago having been infected at 14 years of age. She had me and my sister while infected with Lyme and now I'm currently going through the Lyme testing. Does anyone have information and/or experience about Lyme being passed on from mother to child through the placenta or breast milk?

Welcome!! There is a search feature here where you can research past discussions.

I just did one by clicking on the little word "search" right in the middle of this screen.

I typed in congenital Lyme and found this and many more links:

Borrelia (Lyme bacteria) can definitely be "shared" at birth. You can read quite a few experiences similar to yours at the Marshall Protocol website. I'm sure there are many similar reports on this website too.
