I am 23 and I've recently found out that I might be pregnant. My mother, who I live with, is hsv1&2 positive. Should I be concerned about anything while living with her, sharing bath tubs, soaps, toilets, eating utensils, and what about if I do my laundry with her underwear? And if I touch her dirty underwear to put in the washer?
All this worries me as I do not want to harm my own health as well as my unborn child's. I do use my own towels and never use any wash cloths that are in the bathroom.
What if I use a razor that seems un-used but was used and put back as if it weren't by her or my brother?
I'm asking because I read when you are pregnant, your body and immune system is under stress and can be a little weaker... so could I be more susceptible to the virus?
