Experimental: Intervention group
Children will receive antiretroviral treatment (ART) until 6 weeks old after birth. For the first two weeks, Zidovudine (AZT), Lamivudine (3TC) and Nevirapine (NVP) will be used. When the child is 2 weeks old, the regimen will be adjusted and Nevirapine (NVP) will be replaced by Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r). Early infant diagnosis and other relevant testing will be performed to monitor children's HIV infection status. If the child is not infected, ART will be stopped when he/she reaches 6 weeks old. Otherwise, the treatment will be continued.

Active Comparator: Control group
Children will receive routine prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV services. Nevirapine (NVP) or Zidovudine (AZT) will be administrated to them until 6 weeks old after birth. Early infant diagnosis services will be provided when the child is 6 weeks old and repeated when 3 months old. Children with HIV infection will be referred to receive routine HIV infection treatment.
