This case report is about an 18-year-old primigravida diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) at 34 weeks of gestation. She had classic rashes on her hands and mouth but was otherwise healthy. The baby was delivered at 39 weeks via spontaneous normal vaginal delivery and was well after delivery. We provide a brief literature review on HFMD in pregnancy and a brief discussion on complications caused by the causative organisms.
