I was tested about 30 weeks of pregnancy. Results were negative. After I delivered my daughter she wouldn't eat and was running a fever. She tested positive for GBS. She was on antibiotics for 2 weeks and had to stay in the hospital for the treatment. She is a Senior in High School and is very healthy. We are extremely lucky.
