Hi all
Have just received test results (opted to pay for them privately) that confirm I am positive for Group Strep B. TBH was expecting a negative so got a bit of a shock when was positive. I know all the stats that 30% women have it and the relatively small risk to the baby if you have antibiotics so don't know why I'm worried. The midwife didn't help when I got my results because she seemed to resent that I'd gone outside of the system just because I'd read about the option to do the test yourself. Can someone reassure me it's all going to be OK (or not!?)?
