Okay this is a little embarrassing.. but you know what fuck it were all human.. so I have my midwife tommorow for the first time and I'm very anxious as I know they ask everything. In February 2016 I had an ex boyfriend and sorry for the TMI but he done oral on me and a few days later I got cold sores down there and went to doctors and was told it was HSV type 1 which is mostly just mouth cold sores! I am 10 weeks pregnant on saturday.. and I THINK I'm having an outbreak now but theres no sores my lady area is just very swollen especially in the middle and a bit at the side.. and feels a bit painful.. but I read online that sometimes pregnancy can cause thrush or u can get swollen down there but it's hard to know, as since I was told I had that 3 and a half years I have had I think 2 outbreaks I think and really it was my own fault as I wore to tight Jean's and it sort of irritated it. Now I've been with a guy for 2 years (the baby daddy) and in the past I have tried to tell him about it I said I got this thing a wile ago cause my ex went down on me and it gave me cold sores down there.. and he sort of just panned it off then a few weeks ago I said to him again "Ill have to tell the midwife about the thing I had down there it's just like cold sores basically but its type 1 which is the better type and he goes omg you have herpes then he goes haha joking not a big deal and that was the last we ever talked about it... will I have to say to my midwife tommorow and will the doctors say infront of my boyfriend In the future?? Everytime I try talk about it he just sort of pans it off but I'd rather have a mature convo about it.. we have been together two years and he has never had any symptoms. Thank u guys for listening
