herpes simplex

Posted by sarah on December 28, 2003 at 05:29:58:

Hai,
I am 12 weeks preg now. 2-3 days back it was noticed that there is a herpes siplex on my face.
1) Can it cause any problem to my pregnancy.
2) Is it a transmitted affection (please note that my hus do not have)
3) Will it affect my child in any way?
4) Is there any treatment for this?, if yes, what are the side effects?

Thanks
