They didn't swab my rectum. Every doctor is different.

Cause the bacteria is in that area lol they just want to make sure they don't miss a spot

@2novbabies,

why they do it on ur butt😂 I'm sorry that funny too me.

They should test you at like 36 weeks they'll do a swab on your butt and vagina

oh okay

No they give you the antibiotics at the hospital when you're in labor

oh okay can I take anything over the counter or anything? or can cran berry juice cure it? @whitney @aek91

Group b step is a bacteria found in the vagina & rectum it can cause a fatal infection in a newborn so they screen for it at I forgot how many weeks but I think it's in the 30 range if you test positive they put you in antibiotics while in labor

It's a bacteria in the vagina that some women carry. It does not harm to you but it will to your newborn.
