Question how many weeks were you when you had the group b strep test done mine is coming up friday

I had mine two weeks ago this pregnancy with my son I had it at 36 weeks but I'm getting induced next Friday

@mommysbabies y ru getting induced so soon

I have icp which increases my risk of still birth after 37 weeks

@mommysbabies aww so there going to take your baby out early

I still get to do vaginal birth but yeah

@mommysbabies aww wish youcthe best and a speedy recovery and that baby is very healthy

Thank you I'm going in hoping for the best but planing that she will have to go stay in nicu

35w+

I am doing mine Friday afternoon as well. @ariachannell

How do they do the test? Bloodwork?

@juliaschade41 I heard they swab your vagina down to your anus

@ariachannell ouch!!!!!

@ariachannell what is strep b anyways?

I just heard its some kinda of bacteria that lives inside of us but its not harmful to us but can be harmful to baby and if you have it you take antibiotics during labor
