Can A Mother With Genital Herpes Infection(not Active) Pass The Infection To Baby Who Is Breast Feeded?
Saturday, January 9th, 2010Can a mother, who is already infected with genital herpes, breast feed her 3 month old baby? Any chance of getting the baby infected through breast milk? She is not having an active outbreak right now.
My second question is in case she develops active infection during her lactation still can she breast feed? What precatuions should she take?
Any medical doctor to answer, please.
