Question:

Anyone been through this? Please help! For ladies suffering herpes!!?

Has any ladies still given birth vaginally even though they suffer from genital herpes? or did you have a c-section.

I want to give birth vaginally but i am scared i will be having an outbreak and pass it on to my baby.

PLEASE HELP!


Answers:

kystik83 is completely correct. My sister has three children and has given birth vaginally despite having genital herpes. Unless you show symptoms at the time of birth you are fine. If you have regular outbreaks they may give you suppressive therapy leading up to the birth to help prevent you having an outbreak.

One in four women have genital herpes, so imagine how many give birth naturally to healthy babies every day. Don't worry too much.
