Getting my strep b test tomorrow. What should I expect? I honestly don't recall getting this done with my other kids.

@aliya0915, Bwahahahaha... yeah, just be proactive without invasion.

@babyhawkins2015, I'm going to ask my doctor for the meds tomorrow lol!

@aliya0915, Bwahahahaha...Um.. I am almost just wanting THE shot!! Forget swabbing! lmao

Lol nah it's not that , & if it's positive you don't even get treated until you start labor ,because it's a bacteria that all women have, sometimes during pregnancy it comes out and it's not safe for the babies eyes but it's nothing to stress over

Whew!!!! @Royce_nikol I'm thinking something else 😂

😭😭😭😭😭 @aliya0915 I was like😳😳😳😳😳 when my doctor did the rectal swab, just thinking about it I'm like😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

I'm pretty sure it's kind of like a pap smear

Lol!!!! You should see my face right now 😖🙀 @Karnawest

Lol it wasn't bad at all tho it's only a cotton swab and it doesn't go inside they just test your skin

@babyhawkins2015, me either.... I know with my 16 yo it wasn't done but I don't remember with the 3yo. I still have to get my whooping cough vaccine

The back area??? Oh LORD! 😢 @mrsalston @queeneden @royce_nikol

@aliya0915 yeah its not fun... lol the cervixs isn't that bad since they are already checking it but the other is an unpleasant surprise lol

@aliya0915, Geez... I really don't remember getting it with my 3 other kids...then again, it's been 16-21 years...Things have changed big time! ugh

Thanks! @Karnawest im trying to prepare myself... These are the uncomfortable visits I guess

I don't think it was that bad if I remember correctly they just swab your genital area with a q tip

My doctor told me in the beginning of this pregnancy it was. I've never heard of it before then. I was going to ask my doctor tomorrow was it mandatory... @babyhawkins2015 I'm guessing it is now?

Very quick swipe of your vag and your rectum. Nothing major at all.

@aliya0915, they swap your vagina and the your butt hole, very weird and uncomfortable😁😁😁

They take a long qtip and take a swab of the inside of your cervixs and swab around your rectal

@aliya0915, Is that mandatory??? I HATE shots with a passion. I mean, I will get it for baby's safety, especially with what just happened to my gbabes.
