it's best when you just start your own post instead of adding onto an old post like this.
if indeed you do have herpes, it's not what is causing symptoms in your daughter or yourself. if you want to find out if you do have herpes, you need a type specific herpes igg blood test done. No reason to test your daughter at her age. if she had contracted herpes from you during birth, she would've been noticeably ill and you would've had to have her hospitalized and would've known it was herpes then.

When you have ob's on your buttocks - you aren't shedding the virus from your hip. Now yes you are most likely shedding the virus from your entire anogenital area too but not from the thick skin on your hip ( where a mother balances a child when carrying them ).
It's very unlikely that you transmitted your hsv2 to your son! It takes more than just actual contact with the virus - it takes heat and friction which doesn't happen when just picking your child up to put them in the bath. I'm right with your pediatrician that it's not likely to be herpes that is causing your son's rashes. Kids are very prone to rashes - especially until they get out of diapers.

sounds to me like you are a sexual predator. Shame on you! You will go to jail if the child gets herpes!
The Doc. won't answer on this forum. You need to go to the doctor-to-patient forum.
But you don't need the doctor. There is no risk that your son could get genital herpes this way. Your doctor is right, do not worry. Todders get sores in that area all the time. That is what happens when you wear diapers.
