    Default Darnit...Group B Strep Positive AGAIN!

    It's not really a big deal since I have a scheduled c-section, but just once I'd like to test negative for this! They were surprised when I tested positive with Patrick, because they said that if you've tested positive in one pregnancy, you usually aren't positive with the second pregnancy. Imagine their surprise when, today, I tested positive for the third time.

    As I said, there really is no danger to the baby because I'm having a c-section, but it's just an extra little thing to worry about.

    Seems like the "things to worry about" multiply exponentially towards the end of a pregnancy. Sorry about this concern!
