Does Mononucleosis Affect A Pregnant Woman?

should someone hold off intimate relations when one have mono? If mono stays in your blood forever can one share cps/ utensils/ kiss... or it is only while someone has those symptoms 4-6.. weeks and just in the blood will not effect the other person? Is mono worse for a pregnant mother or the baby and why? Thanks!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Mononeucleosis is not that much contagious, it is transmitted by direct contact with infected person’s saliva. Sharing home or utensils does not transmit the disease. It can not cause any harm to baby as well.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
