TTC w/HSV-2??? TTC after MISCARRIAGE???
Hello, so I have 4 children (1 girl & 3 boys) and just recently had a miscarriage a few weeks ago. I bled really heavy for about a week and stopped bleeding. At this this last pregnancy, I found out that I had HSV-2 (as I had sore blisters on my vagina). I really want to try again for another baby, but I don’t want my current partner getting the virus as well. I’ve been taking acyclovir daily to prevent another outbreak and possibly minimize the chances of me giving it to my partner. It’s been about a week and this medicine doesn’t make me feel the greatest. Me and my partner haven’t done nothing in a while. He most likely (100%) doesn’t have it. I was hoping that this last miscarriage would’ve been my last baby and I would’ve been done having children, especially if it was the gender that I would’ve been okay with, plus also considering the fact that I found out that I’m living with this virus forever. But now it’s like I feel like I should try again for my ‘rainbow’ baby. I’m so confused on how herpes work. Am I contagious only during an outbreak? What are the chances of my partner getting it if I’m on antiviral medicine? I’m scared that he will find out that he got it because he sometimes goes to the plasma center to donate his plasma. My doctor didn’t really explain the virus to me well. Is HSV-2 found in the blood or the saliva? I’m so confused. Please help. And about when should my regular period begin? I’m just in shambles…thanks in advance everyone ❤️
