I'm so scared strep test came positive

[aylinale1989]

So I'm 37 weeks and my strep test came back positive dr said that when I'm at the dr ready to deliver their giving me antibiotics so it won't transfer the baby. But today I google it and didnt like what I read has it ever happen to you? Is.it that bad :(?

Strep b is a virus they test for a few weeks before due date. If ur positive then u get antibiotic before delivery

What is strep?

Had it with my 1st and 3rd. You'll be just fine. Be careful what all you read online.  Trust your Healthcare PROFESSIONAL. They didn't get their licence out of a gumball machine for a quarter.  They know and want what's best for you and your baby.

This is very normal and common.  Had it with my fist two. They will give antibiotics. Don't stress over it. Good luck.

I also had it with my first! It will be fine when they give u ur iv they will give u the meds and then they will test u after u deliver and that should be that!

I tested positive with my first and have had four other children since then. It isn't anything to really stress over. All of my children were fine. They never had any problems from it. They will just give you antibiotics and then all is well.
