Disseminated infection is the most severe form of neonatal herpes, with a mortality rate of 85% for untreated neonates (3). Breastfeeding, when initiated early and associated with frequent sucking provides adequate plasma glucose for the neonate in the first 48 hours of life, with no need for supplemental feeds or water in a healthy neonate.
