Herpes transmission to kids?


Recommended Posts

  • 7 months later...

What symptoms have your children had, @girlnamedhope & @HopefulHerpy? It's rare to pass genital herpes to children unless something wildly inappropriate is happening (since genital herpes is spread via skin-to-skin contact with friction). A lot of how herpes is spread to children is when people have an active cold sore (oral herpes) and kiss a child not knowing herpes can be spread like that. Here's an article on how you get herpes: https://www.herpesopportunity.com/post/how-can-you-get-herpes

@mr_hopp thank you for your inquiry. I posted before about my presentation of GHSV2 isn’t textbook. No doctors believe this; however, the worst is happening. 
 

It’s sad that this had to occur for anyone to listen. My baby has the virus in his mouth like I do. No one will listen because I don’t get blisters or ulcers. His mouth presents like mine: without blisters, just peeling of the membrane.

 

We have an eye appointment this week as well because he has rubbed his eyes. I’m trying my best to keep him from doing so, but he’s only 5 months. His eyes are watery & reddish. I’m praying that the virus hasn’t transferred there, but I need am not too hopeful seeing that I was right about everything else.
