Needing Advice
I am currently 10 days away from my due date and about 4 days ago my youngest son was diagnosed with Hand Foot and Mouth. I am so worried that if I catch it that it will be passed onto my unborn baby. I have no one to help me so there’s absolutely no way I can avoid close contact & I read that most adults that catch the virus are asymptomatic. Has anyone dealt with this before? Im religiously lysoling everything, having my children and myself wash hands repeatedly, keeping hand sanitizer close by, disinfecting toys, dishes/utensils, & bedding with bleach. Swapping out toothbrushes. I need to know if I catch it if it will put my baby in any danger. I need reassurance or something I keep stressing and crying because I feel like if I do catch it, it will harm my baby. I will be calling my healthcare provider tomorrow but I just need to know if anyone has dealt with this first hand and can help me with advice or reassurance or something.
