Herpes can be passed but only if your mom had a break out of herpes on her genitals while she was giving birth to you. But there can be more sever complications to you if you did contract it at birth.

Herpes isn't passed hereditarally. It's passed through skin contact like kissing some one around the mouth while they have a cold sore. The type that causes cold sores on mouth (oral herpes) is usually passed through being innocently kissed by some one that has it. Your mom or a close relative (that has it) could have kissed you on or around the mouth when you were younger. You could have had it since you were a child.
