I was just diagnosed with HVS2 and I was wondering if there is any way that my child could get it?

I was just diagnosed with HVS2 & was wondering if it is possible to give it to my 6 month old son. I was curious, if I could give it to him during birth.. (if I even had it that long).. or if I could give it to him through me not washing my hands well enough after I use the restroom and then...
