If you have herpes in yr mouth and you get pregnant will it harm the baby?
You should talk to your doctor about specific preventative care for you or unborn child. Don't be afraid or embarrassed to ask.I found these answers on the International Herpes Alliance pages.HSV can cause sores on the face and lips (facial herpes, for example "cold sores"), or sores on the genitals (genital herpes). HSV-1 is the usual cause of facial herpes, and HSV-2 is the usual cause of genital herpes. But either type of HSV can infect either part of the body. Either type can also infect a newborn baby.* HSV (herpes simplex virus) is most often spread to an infant during birth if the virus is present in the birth canal during delivery. * HSV can also be spread to the baby if he or she is kissed by someone who suffers from coldsores. * In rare instances, HSV may be spread by touch, if someone touches an active cold sore and immediately touches the baby. So monitor yourself and those that come in close contact with your new baby! Hope this helps.
Is it bad for a parent to kiss a 2 month old baby on the lips?
No. A parent has the right to kiss a baby right on the lips. The baby is a parents child and a parent has rights over the baby. That is my opinion.Of course parents can kiss their babies on the lips, however if the parents have had cold sores in the past, ( a herpes virus) then they take the chance of passing on the herpes virus to their baby.
Can you spread herpes to your baby when you change his diaper?
If you touch the sores or fluids from the sores and then the baby's skin, yes you can. Fluids found in a herpes sore carry the virus, and contact with those fluids can cause infection. If you touch your sores or the fluids from the sores, you may transfer herpes to another part of your own body or to someone else. Do not touch the sores or fluids to avoid spreading herpes. If you touch the sores or fluids, immediately wash your hands thoroughly to help avoid spreading your infection.
How is herpes passed to a new baby as it is being borned?

If you have hurpes can you still get pregnant?
Absolutely YES! Genital herpes may be passed from one person to another through close physical contact. This means sex and practically anything else that can lead to sex. This includes kissing, oral sex, anal sex, etcetera. Genital herpes does not keep you from getting pregnant. In fact, if you or your partner have genital herpes you should see a doctor immediately. The doctor can show you how to use safer birth control so you don't pass the herpes virus to each other (or anyone else) and do his/her best to make sure you don't get pregnant. Babies born to mothers with Herpes generally contract herpes when they are born from the vagina. Many times, women with genital herpes are forced to have a caesarean delivery (when they cut her tummy open and get the baby out) just to protect the baby from getting Herpes. This is VERY SERIOUS! See a doctor and learn what to do to protect yourself and your partner and NOT get pregnant until you learn more.
