Can I give herpes to my baby if I'm pregnant?
Tell your doctor if you have genital herpes or if you have ever had sex with someone who did. The main concern is that the baby may be born while you have sores or are shedding the herpes virus, which could spread the infection to the baby. If a baby catches herpes, it could be serious.
The baby is usually safe in the uterus. When the baby passes through the birth canal, it may catch herpes. Your doctor may do a cesarean section ("C-section") if you have an outbreak at the time you go into labor, so the baby won't have to go through your birth canal.
Genital Herpes and Your Sex Life
Genital Herpes and Your Sex Life
Share Good info with you:People with genital herpes can be just as sexual as their friends and relatives who don't have the disease. The difference is that they must be more aware and attuned to their bodies and take precautions so that they may reduce the risk of transmitting the disease to partners who do not already have it.
Because herpes is a highly transmittable disease, even when you don't have an outbreak, it's up to you to be responsible about when and how you interact with your partner. But remember that sex isn't only about intercourse. The most intimate experiences we have may involve kissing, touching, snuggling, and holding hands. Having genital herpes may inspire you and your partner to think differently about sex and be creative.
