Strep B test?
Have you ladies had your strep B test yet? I go for mine tomorrow and was just curious...it's just a vaginal culture swab correct? I've read a bit about it and it has me a bit nervous. Apparently 1 in 3 women carry the bacteria. It sounds like you just have to have antibiotics for your delivery. Anyone have any experience with this subject?
So just read that if you tested positive for a uti in your pregnancy they don't give you the strep b test they automatically just give you the antibiotic when your in labor
If tested positive for strep b what happens next ?
CAN SOME ONE EXPLAIN THE GROUP B STREP TEST WHAT IS IT AND WHAT IF YOU HAVE IT IM CONFUSED ON WHAT IT IS

Yea that's right. I think it depends on how high of the bacteria you have to what ure treatment is. Some people only need to have treatment labour, others before too xxx

I had it this past pregnancy. I just had to do antibiotics during labor. If you do have it your just supposed to go to the hospital as soon as you sense your in labor so they can start them.

I found out I had group b strep with a urine sample. But it's nothing to worry about. I got put on a 7 day antiobiotics treatment (8 pills a day!!!) They are horrible but it helps. And then also I will be having treatment during labour! Which will just be antiobiotics in my atm every 6 hours. Like I said it's nothing really to worry about, just need to get treated so it doesn't make ure baby sick when there born xxx
