Subject: Yep. I was induced w/Elias and they wanted me to have two full doses of them before delivering (m)
In reply to: donnabelle70 's message, "OH! I forgot to mention, I tested positive for GBS. Anyone know anything about this? Dr said IV antibiotics during labor" on 21:28:36 04/21/03 Mon

So when I showed up for the induction, they put one dose in my iv bag (I think it was another little bag that had to drain with the bigger one). Then when it was empty they gave me another one.

I want to say they gave Elias some kind of antibiotic after the birth too, but I really can't remember. You know how it's like living in a fog those first few hours...days...weeks! LOL

Like Ginger said, I don't think it's a big deal unless you don't get the antibiotics, in which case it can hurt the baby.

Can't wait to hear your birthstory and see pics!!!
