Kelly, thanks for sharing your experience with your OB. Yes, my midwife explained to me basically the same thing your OB told you. She, of course, doesn't want to decide for me that's why I've been doing some readings about GBS - that's when I came across a story when a situation went bad. It is, however, as I understand very rare.

Yes, I read about the garlic treatment. I have to admit I'm scared of putting anything in down there. Believe it or not I could never use a tampon!! I think I have a really weird phobia about putting things in there...
