[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^just googled what a full range STD test tests for and Herpes 1 and 2 appear to be included in the test.  So if Op was tested like I was during pregnancy...and the test was negative....

By the use of the ellipses, are you intending to imply that OP's wife was tested for HSV as a part of routine OB/Gyne pregnancy screening? Because it is not a part of routine pregnancy screening. If you believe it is, please cite your source.

ACOG does not recommend a "full range STD test" for pregnant women. The recommended testing specifically includes reliable and consistent tests for which the condition would not be otherwise apparent, would pose significantly increased risk during pregnancy or delivery, and for which there is effective intervention.

Here is what ACOG recommends as standard screening re: STIs during pregnancy:

1. Hepatitis B (technically also an STI)
2. STIs
- a. Syphilis
- b. Chlamydia
- c. Gonorrhea IF there are additional risk factors
- d. HIV

A given medical care provider might do or recommend additional testing, but that would not be a part of the universal American guidelines.
