Hope someone can help me. When I went to the midwife the other day (OBGY was away) I mentioned when was the test for Strep B and she said normally around week 38. I mentioned that DD was born at 35w and there was a high chance this baby would be born that early, so when would we do the test then? She said the OBGY might do the test at 32w then but since I tested positive last pregnancy (during the pap smear 6months before I was pregnant mind you) that they would just assume I have it this time and give everyone antibiotics anyway...I was like WTF!
I mentioned I read that the results vary week to week with strep B tests and there is a high chance I wouldn't have it this time but she pretty much shrugged her shoulders and moved on to another topic.
I am not sure what to do. Should I demand a test at week 32 and hope I don't have it, or just accept that DS will have the IV since he might be born premmie anyway?
