    Try not to get too upset. It's better for bub to have ABs than contract GBS. It's very dangerous for them.

    Colostrum is magic stuff according to my IM. If you feed soon after birth and concentrate on getting that good stuff into him/her it should help with colonising bub's gut with good bacteria.

    Remember you have no control over having GBS. It's very common. What you could do if you want is insert garlic into the vagina on a daily basis for a week or so then retest. Garlic can kill off the bad bacteria. Alan has advice on that from memory.

    Fyi, i had iv abs and barely noticed. I just dragged the iv thing around while i paced up and down until it finished.
