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.
