strep b??
When the doctor checks for strep b or whatever what do they do?? Like swab you or something? I was just thinking about it and i have mine next week and have no idea what they do lol.
Like every one posted above just a quick swab in vajayjay and across bum. Not really something to freak out over if tested positive for.. it's one of those good bacterias that are ok to have down there but not in the throat or mouth and with our angels passing through that area they can be exposed which is why antibiotic is given during labor! Haven't heard from my Dr. so hopefully I am ok!
They just take a quick swab. Its very simple and it doesnt hurt at all. I thought it was a little uncomfortable but that was mostly because that was the only time a male doctor had seen my va jayjay, any other time i was examined it was by a female haha so having a male swab me was just uncomfortable.
I tested positive for strep b and was so scared at first, but it sounds scarier than what it is. They just gave me antibiotics while i was in labor and everything was fine.
