infant is less than 9 mos old and I'm wondering if disease can be transmitted by mother during fetal developement or birth? Don't know the father but, would hate to see an innocent man go to prison.

Yes, it can be transmitted through birth, if the child is given birth to naturally (not through cesarean).
If the mother isn't sure how the child got them, there is a possiblity that she doesnt know she has them.

I totally agree with you.. this is the point I've been making all alone. In my local town, we've had at least 3 official Teacher Scandals that made the local newspaper and zero priest scandals. Ancedotally, I know of at least 2 other cases of Teacher's sexually abusing or being inappropriate with minors which SHOULD have been reported..but weren't. However, NO ONE in the town questions our Public School system and the reported cases, never made it to the local news station or outside of our little community. But the SAME local news channel will report of a Priest abuse case in Australia, clear on the other side of the world. Amazing! Simply amazing the double standard and inconsistency. Thank you for showing yet another bias and inconsistency in the media. If this Dr. had been a Priest instead.. people would be questioning every pediatrician and medical establishment out there. Sheessh!

Moles, warts, and skin tickets are typical epidermis wounds that grow naturally. Though they are usually low cancerous, they may be embarrassing if situated on a visible portion such as the face. Skin wounds like moles and warts cause self-confidence problems to the sufferers. An individual with moles normally becomes a loner since they don't really want to be noticed in public. They feel uncomfortable to be out in public places, therefore depression may naturally follow but now you can modify all this with this guide from here https://tr.im/pySLS , Moles, Warts and Skin Tags Removal eBook.

Transmission of genital warts from birth is very rare, and the mother's OB would know about her history. She more than likely would have had a c-section eliminating the chance of the baby getting HPV (genital warts). Are you sure that they are warts? Why not try casually bringing it up to the mom like, "Hey, did your MD tell you what that was on Johnny?". Genital warts in children are usually associated with sexual abuse.

Read information on HPV, it seems to be rampant in the U.S. currently and most likely the 'warts' were developed in the womb.There would be other signs of molestation, don't send an innocent man to prison, but if there are other details leading to that, fry his a$$.

Neonatal infection may arise by passing through an infected birth canal. This can lead to rare complications, such as laryngeal papillomatosis i.e. warts in the throat. Because this complication is unlikely, a caesarean section is rarely indicated simply because a pregnant woman has genital warts.
In small children, genital warts raise the possibility of sexual abuse but in many cases it is due to vertical transmission ... By comparing the prevalence and type of human papillomavirus (HPV) in parents and their newborns, investigators have shown that the risk of vertical transmission is quite low, despite a relatively high positivity rate in the maternal cervix. Parents should be reassured that while HPV is commonly detected in pregnant women, detection of HPV in newborns is rare and does not appear to be associated with persistent infection,"you can decide your self ..think of the child involved.....something should be done..

They tested me for every std when i was pregnant , i signed a million papers from the docs office giving them permission to test , it seems like if the lady had something they would have caught it early and planed a c-section to prevent baby from getting it , if the lady caught the std later in the pregnancy like way later and the baby came out through the birth canal there is a small slieght chance it could have gotten it , My step sister's husband had given her warts also known as hpv during her last trimester of pregnancy she didnt know it and gave birth to her son through the birth canal and the baby dose not have hpv , More than likely i would say there was some sexual abuse . I have looked it up and herpes are the easiest to spread theough delivery , hpv wart are a lot harder and very seldom are spread through delivery ...if your unsure still look it up ..

I'd say it could be transmitted at birth.. anything that can be transmitted during normal sexual intercourse could be transmitted to the infant at birth.
