Just found out I have GBS – any advice?
Hi ladies,
As some of you may know, I’m pregnant with my second baby – 34 and a half weeks now and just got a test result in the mail saying that I have got Group B Streptococcus. 🙁
I have never even heard of this before and am trying to research as much about it as I can so I can do all that I can so that bub and I are both safe up until, during and after the birth. In the little brochure I was sent that doesn’t say much, it mentions that about 1 in 5 woman get this during pregnancy, so I guess it is quite common. But it has me a bit freaked out that it can cause death in my newborn, only a small chance, but it still has me worried!!
Has anyone else ever gone through this before? Should I be worried?
Any advice, info, etc would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you lovelies!! xoxo
