It is nothing to be concerned about as long as you get the antibiotics when you deliver. It is a bacteria, and there is only a problem if it spreads to the baby, which is why they give the antibiotics. I had it with my first pregnancy, but not with any of my other pregnancies.
 
Last week I had the strep B test done last week and when I went into day for my check up he said it was positive and it was nothing to worry about. But he didn't tell me what it meant or anything, except I had to have antibiotics when in labor. Has anyone ever had this before? Should I be concerned?
