I am a hsv1 carrier - I got my first cold sore when I was young. Just about an hour ago I noticed a tiny red dot on my lip so I have started treating it just in case that's what it is. My question is - is this dangerous for lily? She will be 4 months in 2 weeks.
I know it is dangerous for a newborn to have it. But I read that if I am a carrier of the virus that my baby may not get it for the first 6 months because of the antibodies I have and passed onto her. I'm going to call my doctor tomorrow bUt I wanted to see what everyone else thinks?
Any thoughts please? I am so upset and worrying so bad that she is going to die
