Herpes Two: Herpes two is found (90% of the time) somewhere between the belly button and the thighs. If you do not know where you are infected then there is little we can do other than to make sure your partner is also tested. If your partner is not infected with herpes two then you can go on medication to suppress the viral shedding by about 50%.

Avoid sharing towels: It can be spread mom to child by skin to skin contact while having blisters or by sharing towels/washcloths if you have blisters.
