You boyfriend can't give your unborn child hepatitis C.  Only you could and you don't have hep C.  hepatitis C is transmitted by blood to blood contact.
It's not that easy to get due to the fact it has to get into your bloodstream.  
You shouldn't use his razor or toothbrush.  Things that could involve transfer of blood to your blood.  But the chances of getting hep C by living in the same household and having monogamous sex ...is rare.

As long as there is no blood to blood you have nothing to worry about. and  there is no way your unborn baby can contact it from him...... Good luck with your family.............
