well i did call and told the nurse my concerns. She said i had not been given antibiotics right away because i don`t have the actual infection- it had just shown a `presence` in my first urine culture- but all my other one`s after that have been clear, she said they are still going to treat me during labor, and the Dr. that she talked to said they could go ahead and call in a prescription to calm my fears so i will take that for a week, and whatever had had a presence would be taken care of, but that they will still treat me at delivery no matter what. I asked all my questions and stated all my concerns and i feel 100% better. Thanks all who commented:)

i had this with my first pregnacy it was found at 24 weeks after a swab. my waters broke at home at 7am i went into hospital and i got a pessary nothing worked. so i was taken to the labour ward at 8pm and started a drip then. my son was born at 6.31am and i had to stay in 2 nights for him to be monitored. he was fine. i have it this time around again it was found at 13 weeks after a swab. i am unsure about what happens when its found in urine

I tested positive with this only with my youngest son, i was given antibiotics right away. I never did have any other meds after that since after the meds i tested negative for it so maybe that is why. My son is now 2 and had no problems at all what so ever... hope this helps..

And then i also read you are not supposed to be induced if you are GBS+. My Dr. has said if i have a `favorable` cervix she would induce me at 39 weeks! Is she forgetting i have it or am i reading way to much into this?! Sorry, i am having a very emotional day:(

I have GBS as well, my doc told me that if my water breaks then they need to start treating me right away, but other than that they don`t really seem all too worried about it.

So at my 2nd appt. i was told i`m positive for Colonized Group B that was found in my urine. I put a poll and question on here about it and my Dr`s and everyone else i have talked to said it is really no big deal as long as you get the antibiotics during labor. Well i started to Google it again today and was reading that if it is found in your urine you are supposed to start treatment right away! And i also read that you need the antibiotics at least 4 hours during labor before delivery for it to be affective?! WTF? I don`t want to call the Dr. and say `this is what i read online` (i`m sure they HATE that) but why am what i`m reading and being told so completely different?! Looking for any comforting advice right now as i am starting to freak out! THANKS!
