Quick update and questions
So I went to the Dr tonight for my 37 wk checkup. I was on the stress monitor and was having contractions. When he did an internal, he said that I was effaced and the baby was in position but I'm not dialated yet. He told me that the baby could come at any time between today and the next two weeks....that's the update.
The questions...I asked about the results of the strep b test and he told me that it came back slightly positive. Anyone else been told that? I know they put you on antibiotics but does anyone know anything else about it?
TIA

I wasn't diagnosed with strep B - but it isn't a big deal I think something like 40% of women are positive. All it means is when you go into labor they hook you up to an IV antibiotic drip.

I don't know what it means to be "slightly" positive but... I'm definitely positive. My DR said it's not a big deal and they give you antibiotics when you go into labor. He said it's just to prevent you passing it on to your life, which CAN cause some health risks.
