Group B ? Also uterus measurement ?

in 3rd Trimester
So I was wondering when they do that group b test? Also I am 31 weeks and I had to ask for my dr to measure my uterus....does this seem odd I thought they start measureing you now to make sure the baby is growing. If I didnt ask she wouldnt have done it. Should I be concerned?

    My dr began measuring my uterus at 31 or 32 weeks. My GBS test was done at 35 weeks.

    The doctor said he would start measuring me at my next appointment which is 32 weeks.   I didnt ask about the GBS test, but I know it will be coming up eventually!

    My midwife started measuring me around 28/29 weeks. I will get my GBS test done at my 36 week appt.

    I think they started measuring my uterus at around 25 weeks?  I am having my GBS done at my next appointment, I will be 35 weeks.

    I had my group B test done at my 35w appointment, and they told me the result the next week at my 36w appointment. My MW started measuring my uterus somewhere in the 20's...I can't remember exactly which week it was.

    Got my first uterus measurement at 25w. Not sure about Group B...

    They usually wait to do the group B between 35-37 weeks because it is a strain that can come and go throughout your pregnancy. That is the most accurate time to really test for it, since you'll be so close to delivery time. I got mine at 36 weeks.

    As far as uterus measurement, I know that can vary. I think mine was somewhere in the 20's when she started.
