Hi:

I just wanted to tell you that Group B step is totally nothing to worry about. The Dr. just gave me the antibiotic during labor and baby was fine. I did not take anything prior to that.

Have a happy labor and delivery!
Take care.

Dear Mom1
you should make sure you empty bladder often,
Drink Cranberry juice if you live in US.
Blot vaginal area with unscented tissues.
Do not wear tight undergarments.

Unfortunately about 30% womens carry Group B streptococci, no threat to baby. Take medication and enjoy pregnancy.
