Answer

Honestly, if no one told me it was near my bum, I wouldn’t know. Just a quick q-tip swipe on the surface down there.

Answer

Pretty routine test to make sure that you arent going to pass bacteria to the baby. If you test positive they usually have you on an antibiotic in your iv drip during labor. Its just a swab that goes from your vagina to your rectum. Doesnt hurt and some doctors will let you do it yourself if you ask

Answer

They test every pregnant person! The test for GBS is basically a culture done between 36 and 38 weeks of pregnancy. In this test, a swab is used to take a sample from the vagina and rectum. They test everyone because It can cause infection during birth if you have it. You’ll just get an antibiotic when you’re in labor if you were positive so it’s no big deal. Most people are negative I believe  it takes 2seconds
