  • My best friend tested positive, too. She didn't do anything special, they just gave her antibiotics at delivery. Try to relax! Your doctor will take care of you.
  • eat garlic or ginger (ginger can cause contractions fyi)

  • Yup, like a previous poster stated they will just give antibiotics before the birth while you're in the hospital to decrease the babies risk of getting it during delivery.
