Negative GBS positive for genital HPV😓😓 why me!?

Question

I fortunately came back negative for my gbs and positive for genital HPV after developing a single small Little bump, I've been so depressed and I feel like shit!! I've only had two partners my entire life and I've been with my now partener for nine years total & married for 5 months, we decided to get married as soon as we found out we were having a second baby. But unfortunately in this 9 year run we broke up a couple of times and both admitted to have had another partner from one of our break ups back when we were younger😓 we then decided to stay together & have been for the last 5 years without breakups. I'm really devastastaed as we don't know if he too has it since he's never had any bumps (outbreaks) & neither have I until now during my second pregnancy! I don't understand I feel like I am getting punished for have had premarital sex and not only that but for having sex with that other guy back in the past because my now husband and I were basically high school sweethearts although not from the same high school...we met when we were so young (I was 13 & he was 16) we were both our first everything, we had no idea life would take us down this path of being together so long and end up having a baby to eventually getting married. And now this? We don't know if he got it from the girl he had been with or I got it from the guy I was with? It's really sad because I feel like I'm a disgusting human being, despite this he has shown full support but he's also in denial and I understand him but it's been really hard on me because I'm afraid I could pass it to my children at anytime if I'm not carful, I've read many different things and possible ways to transmit it although it's by sexual contact "only" I'm  so afraid I don't even want to touch my daughter sometimes because every time I see her I can't imagine putting her at risk of something she not only has no idea about but of transmititing the virus and her having it for the rest of her life. She's so little and why would I put my daughter at risk like this!!! and although I always wash my hands now I'm super paranoid and wash them constantly every time I touch anything...I'm sorry for the rant I just need advice I just found out two days ago and still havent spoke to my doctor since she emailed me my results but I also now fear I will be treated differently and I'm just a total mess. I try. Not to show it but I catch myself crying at any given time of day because so many women and men out there having unprotected and protected sex without thinking about the consequences that life can bring it's sad,it's disgusting and it's unfortunate that I had to get this....

Answer

I am soooo sorry to hear about this!!!! I may not know you but it's still such a heart breaking story!!!!! Keep your head up and keep the faith dear! I know it's not easy to do but things should be as ok as they can be! Long distance hugs!!!! 🤗 and many many prayers 🙌

Answer

Its ok. The sooner you get treatment the better. You are in no way a bad person or a bad mom. You'd be surprised how many girls wind up getting it. Most guys who are carriers show no signs. It can lay dormant in women for years and suddenly appear. I had it as a teen and after a couple years it cleared up. The doctor treated the inside with some kind of medicine and I got the 3 hpv shots. I'm now 23. Almost 24. Been clear for years. Most of the time it clears up on its own. That's why I also decided if I have a daughter I'll be getting her the shots before she's sexually active. I believe my sister found out while she was pregnant. Her 2 kids are happy and healthy. :) I'll definitely keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Answer

You do know HPV can clear itself
Right? I had it when I was 19 and then have never tested positive again after I got the shots and im 28 now.

Answer

Hey hun,
I can relate to how you feel. In 2007, I tested positive for HPV and went through a series of STD testing and also had to get a colonoscopy to screen for cancer. Everything turned out fine and it went away 3 years later. I've had normal paps since 2010 and a healthy 5 year old and baby on the way. My husband and Ive been together since 2008 and hes been supportive. After getting hpv, I found out how common it is and how easy it is to get due to skin to skin contact. I have a lot of friends who also had it and it cleared on its own. I wish you the best and stop beating yourself up its not good for you or your family.
