Can you give me some suggestions for all parents with genital herpes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More info needed: Too little information to be certain what you're looking for. If you have genital herpes and are pregnant, make sure your Ob knows; s/he will take precautions to prevent transmission to the baby. If you're wondering about transmitting to kids in the home, don't worry. GH is never transmitted in the household, via toilets, towels, touching, etc. Your kids are at zero risk, assuming no sexual abuse.
