Ok thank you. Yes she is aware will start me on them starting from 34 weeks.
I have another concern as well my ob doesn’t give me much confidence in her knowledge on the case. she told me that even if I have it genitally I can still give it to my baby by kissing because I’ll shed the virus from everywhere same for my boyfriend. but that it’s not encourage for parents not to kiss their babies to just avoid their lips and just do the head and cheeks.
1.So what precautions should we take with our baby? His parents have cold sores as well so I want to be well informed.
2. Can I spread it orally as well like she said ? I’ve never gotten cold sores .
3. As far as our intimacy goes, since he gave it to me genitally from oral , i never gotten a cold sore we would always wait a week after it was fully healed but can he get it back genitally ?
