Hmm, I think it's unfair for your Ob to automatically class you as GBS+ this pregnancy because GBS can be transient so you may not even have the bacteria this time around. The only way of knowing for sure would be to have a swab done late in pregnancy.

FWIW I was GBS+ last time too, and I had an elective caesarean at 38 weeks due to pregnancy induced hypertension.

I'm going for a VBAC this time around whether I'm GBS+ this time or not. Don't let your Ob's comments sway your decision. Really think about what YOU want from your birth and go with that.

Best of luck with your decision.
