GBS+ and poss induction if waters break
I've found out that I am GBS+ve this time and so will need the antibiotics, which I am fine about. However, following a discussion with my mw, I'm a bit concerned about what happens if my waters break spontaneously and labour doesn't get started. She has said that some of the doc's in the hosp may want to give me the antibiotics and then induce me, which I really don't want. Now I'm going through the birth centre and my mw is 100% behind me not being induced in this situation, will advocate for me and is going to talk to a like minded doc and get it written in my notes, plus I've put it in my birth plan. However, the problem is if she isn't on if this happens. I'm just wondering what are the benefits of inducing in this situation - does waiting for labour to happen increase the odds of the baby getting the infection? I'd just like some facts so that I can stand my ground if induction is unneccesary?
I know that chances are that labour will start around the same time as my waters break, but with DD I had SROM and then nothing for 15hours, when things started on their own -so I know my body will go into labour eventually if I again have SROM which is why I don't want to be induced.
Anyway, sorry for the long post!
