Did I Pass Strep to My 6-Month-Old Baby?
My poor baby
She's 6 months old and has strep! I had a bad case of Mastitis with group a strep and Idk if I passed it to her. I was on the strongest antibiotics in the hospital and still taking antibiotics. We went to her wellness checkup and I had her doctor test for it because she was congested and had bad breath. Mama is always right. Don't ever doubt yourself when it comes to your baby! I am hoping we can get her on antibiotics tonight.

My twins both recently had strep so bad they got scarlet fever on top of it. You'll be in my thoughts....my twins were 13 months I couldn't,imagine going through that with a 6 month old baby.

Thank you mamas! Luckily since I've been taking antibiotics for a few weeks now I've been slightly treating her at the same time since I BF. Trying to build my supply back up but doctor was glad I was already taking some

Thank you! When I told the doctor she might have strep he was skeptical. And I told my SO I thought she had it and he didn't believe me either! I even went to a follow up appointment for my mastitis and that nurse said it was highly doubtful that she'd get it. But the virus is had was very vicious and could have killed me. So I wasn't going to take chances...
