I had a strep b infection in my second pregnancy and it may have had something to do with my pre-term labour at 32 weeks. However, I wasn't told I would need treatment during labour. When I went in to labour at 40 weeks, it happened quite quickly, we needed an ambulance and were in the delivery room 10 minutes before he was born. Then they came to me and said that my baby had been exposed to the bacteria and needed an injection immediately.

So they took him away and gave him a needle and didn't mention it again. I had no idea what could have happened if he had been infected.

I really don't remember being tested during this pregnancy.
