Anonymous asks: Please post anonymously. I recently took the Group B Strep test in week 35 of my pregnancy and found out that I am GBS positive. I know that IV antibiotics are recommended during labor to get rid of GBS but I am extremely hesitant of taking antibiotics for numerous reasons (for myself and baby). Has anyone had experience with IV antibiotics during labor for GBS (specifically Ampicillin) - notice any negative side effects in Mom or baby afterwards? Are there ways to help counteract any side effects baby might have if I do get antibiotics? Obviously I want to protect both of us, but there seem to be so many pros and cons to antibiotics and no antibiotics. Need advice! Thanks in advance! ~Nadia
