Absolutely incorrect. A woman who has oral herpes or genital herpes CAN in fact breast feed her baby!!!

Breastfeeding is not recommended if you think you might have this. If you have never had any symptoms and none of your partners have had it then you are most likely safe. Of course there is always the risk having it without having had an outbreak or having one that was so mild you did not notice or misdiagnosed it. If you have never had the test done and you are unsure, it may be best to wait for the result.

it's most helpful when you just keep adding to your original post as we ask in our read before posting post on this forum. thank you for your future cooperation with this.

you need to call the clinic monday and ask how long it takes them. each clinic is different as far as if they do the tests there or send them out.
