well, I’m guessing that the contact was very brief, right? Did you wash his hands or anything?
I’m thinking that the risk is low. I would be looking for blisters around his eyes or irritation of any kind. Just take him into the pediatrician if you have concerns.
I also don’t think there is much concern about your taking Valtrex during your pregnancy but I don’t want you to perceive me giving you advice about this.
I know you will be obsessing about this, but you only really have to obsess for about 10 days.
Remember that I think your risk is low of him getting ocular herpes.
And I’m happy for you that the baby looks great.
