NO genital herpes is no spread that way.

There is a small chance of passing oral herpes (what causes cold sores and fever blisters) by sharing drinks and utensils with some one that has a visible cold sore.

NO washing the utensils would kill any signs of the virus, also herpes doesn't live for more then a few seconds after it leaves the body.

Can you get herpes from your own cold sores?

The herpes virus is spread by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person, at the location where the virus is active, during a time when they are shedding virus.If a person shedding cold sore virus at the mouth performs oral sex on you, you can get genital herpes.You can not get genital herpes from your own cold sores, unless you are very flexible.Many people are under the mistaken impression that the type of herpes that causes cold sores is different from the type that causes genital herpes. This is a myth; herpes types 1 and 2 each can cause oral or genital lesions.One third of the population is unaware that they have the virus, that's why it's being spread so easily. One out of 5 people has the virus, and that number is growing. There is no cure. There are antivirals that are prescribed that keep the number of outbreaks down, but like I said, just because you don't have a sore, doesn't mean you can't get it. Acyclovir and Valacyclovir are the two most prescribed anti-virals.

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.
