Can you still have a water birth with Strep B?

Starting to think about labour (nearly 37 weeks) and its occurred to me I'd really like a water birth as I think being in the water would really be a good source of pain relief for me. The only problem is I have Strep B and so will require antibiotics via IV when I go into labour.

Does anyone know or has anyone had a possible water birth whilst having Strep B?

I'm seeing my midwife on Wednesday so I am going to ask about it then as well but just wondered in the meantime.
