@shakira05, no problem! It can be dangerous if not diagnosed and treated, but if you're getting prenatal care it's really unlikely that'll happen.

Okay thanks ladies because the internet always seem to make things seem worse then what it really is. They talking about possibility of babies dying and all smh

It's just a swab on the external part of your "area". It's to check for bacteria that could be dangerous for baby. It will determine if you need antibiotics during labor to protect baby

Quick swab of your anus and vagina, and if you're positive, they give you antibiotics during labor. Not bad at all. I was positive with my first, and neither of us had any problems.

Nothing serious they sway near and around your anus quickly just to check for infection no big deal over before you know it
