    Was thinking the same thing BW - they don't have to tell you who it was just whether or not you've been exposed to the virus?

    Just did a quick google and I think you can stop panicking - it's just a strain of strep throat and is treated with ABs. Doesn't look like there would be any danger to your bub even if you did get it, but apparently it isn't very contagious anyway so you should both be fine.

    I'd get on the phone to your ob, that's what i did when I was exposed to Rubella during my prg with L.
