Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Herpes / May 2004Dont know if anyone remembers me,,BUT...;-))
I'm Pregnant...;) I got married in Oct. and I'm Due to have my baby ( GIRL ) In May..;)...1st child. The Herpes is not affecting my life in anyway!!!! it seems like since ive been pregnant I have'nt had any OBs at all...is that possible that pregnancy make OBs decline? I heard the good news about Angela!!!!!!!!!! The Dr. doesnt seem concerned at all about the herpes, she just said if I have an ob at the time of delivery then she will do a C- section.... is there anything I should be doing or not doing in this pregnancy?.... Also, when I do get an OB it is never blisters, it might just be a tiny red spot, so how do they determine if a c-section is necessary? is there a risk only if there is blisters or even if there is anything unusual there at all???? Thanks for any advice on herpes and pregnancy.... Dawn.... Merry Christmas.... Congratulations, Dawn!! Thanks for the update. :) I can't answer your prengancy questions but just wanted to say thanks for sharing your update with us. ar > I'm Pregnant...;) > I got married in Oct. and I'm Due to have my baby ( GIRL ) In [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > Merry Christmas.... >I'm Pregnant...;) >I got married in Oct. and I'm Due to have my baby ( GIRL ) In >May..;)...1st child. Congratulations, Dawn! It seems to be going around. >The Herpes is not affecting my life in anyway!!!! >it seems like since ive been pregnant I have'nt had any OBs at all...is >that possible that pregnancy make OBs decline? Sounds like pregnancy agrees with you. >I heard the good news about Angela!!!!!!!!!! >The Dr. doesnt seem concerned at all about the herpes, she just said if >I have an ob at the time of delivery then she will do a C- section.... >is there anything I should be doing or not doing in this pregnancy?.... I think you're supposed to eat a lot, and ask your husband to wait on you hand and foot. >Also, when I do get an OB it is never blisters, it might just be a tiny >red spot, so how do they determine if a c-section is necessary? is there >a risk only if there is blisters or even if there is anything unusual >there at all???? If there are any signs of viral shedding your doctor may go with the C-section. It helps if you are aware of your own prodomes so that you can help your doc tell if there is any viral activity going on. Just be sure to keep talking to her about it and you'll be fine. >Thanks for any advice on herpes and pregnancy.... > Dawn.... >Merry Christmas.... Yaaaaaaaaay. You too. Mike Hi Dawn, I also seemed to have a decline in OB's when I became pregnant. And since then also! A little prodrome here and there but no bad OB. Keep us up on all your news. I like to hear baby stories!

I bet that is because your body is in super high gear, protecting your new little baby. (just my two cents worth) -- I am a big believer in the logic and beauty of pregnancy and the body being designed perfectly for almost any scenario. >I heard the good news about Angela!!!!!!!!!! > >The Dr. doesnt seem concerned at all about the herpes, she just said if >I have an ob at the time of delivery then she will do a C- section.... > >is there anything I should be doing or not doing in this pregnancy?.... Yes, be wary of what you read and trust, unless it comes directly from your caregiver....=) Now, there are a LOT of really good and informative sites with information out there....but there are also ones that are either not so informative, have blatantly bad info or cause more questions! =) >Also, when I do get an OB it is never blisters, it might just be a tiny >red spot, so how do they determine if a c-section is necessary? is there >a risk only if there is blisters or even if there is anything unusual >there at all???? Midwives do things like put superglue on outbreaks and do a regular delivery and have done so for years. An OB would probably be much less likely to do the same, LOL. I suggest asking your OB the very same question you posed at us....since she/he will be the one delivering you and making that decision. =) Do share the answer, though....I am sure it would be helpful. >Thanks for any advice on herpes and pregnancy.... > > Dawn.... > >Merry Christmas.... Doctors will c-section at the drop of a hat nowadays. They get fewer malpractice suits that way. She probably wont give you a choice. Just knowing you have it means she'll almost deffinately do one. Amazing how technology makes cutting you open is actually safer than normal child birth... >She probably wont give you a choice. Just >knowing you have it means she'll almost deffinately do one Who told you that??? (... and whomever it was is wrong) M2 M2, Isn't it interesting where people get their information from? I would LOVE to hear where that tid-bit came from . . . LOL *hugs* Angela ;-) www.yoshi2me.com > >She probably wont give you a choice.

C-Sections are only recommended if there are signs of an outbreak at the time of delivery. A mom can request one, of course, but they aren't the norm for us. ar > Doctors will c-section at the drop of a hat nowadays. They get fewer > malpractice suits that way.

If you look in the UK newpapers online you'll see there is about to be a BIG sea change in how C-sections are handled in the UK, particularly within the NHS. Tim -- When playing rugby, its not the winning that counts, but the taking apart ICQ: 5178568 Actually - A pregnant woman who has genital herpes doesn't necessarily have to have a c-section. Believe me - I KNOW what I'm talking about. Angela ;-) www.yoshi2me.com > Doctors will c-section at the drop of a hat nowadays. They get fewer > malpractice suits that way.
