So im 12weeks pregs and thing is,ive got a niece who was suspected to have HandFootMouthDisease but she was already two days recovering from it when i met her. Then my nephew came over and i shared a drink w him until when i was eating then i realised the same symptoms my niece had from the disease. I asked his parents and they suspected he couldve had got infected from my niece because they did touch and kiddy kiss and all. Im so concerned now. Im not so sure what can HFMD do to pregnant ladies since preg moms are told to stay away from infected children. Even my husband said so. Please ladies any advice???

I had to Google it because that's the first time hearing of it. But call your doctor just to be on the safe side

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash.
