I was never tested for it so I'll never know if I had it but my son had suspected sepsis & spent 5 days in special care because with a big board strapped to his arm to get the antibiotics into him. If I'd been asked I would've said yes to the antibiotics during the labour (17 hours & ventousse delivery) & may just have avoided the trauma we went through whilst he was in special care (that's a story for another time).
