As the blessing baby's journey progresses into nearly the last two weeks of pregnancy. The couples doctor put them both on medication to prevent the spread of the herpes simplex virus. The doctor this time took the necessary precaution. After the couple's baby arrived they took the steps even further while at home. They didn't allow anyone to visit the baby, until 2 weeks of age. The family was very protective of this child and now he's at the age of 5 healthy as can be.
