[|AI|]  Hi, Yes Rubella infection in pregnancy can cause hearing loss. By affected do you mean that you have Antibodies to rubella, which was checked by a blood test. Usually if you have already had an infection /vaccination of rubella it is very unlikely for you to get it again. And so you can safely go for the next pregnancy. I would like to know if your 1 child has any other developmental problems or delayed milestones. As that could change the diagnosis and cause of hearing loss. As, if it is an inherited or a genetic cause and not rubella which caused the hearing loss, there could be a recurrence. It would be best to get yourself and kid seen by a fetal medicine specialist to know the cause of hearing loss. Hope this helps. Regards.
