32 weeks currently. My next appt will be 1/19… strep b test?

Question

Heard about strep b test, they have to swab vagina and rectum? Vagina is whatever but rectum? Does it feel weird? Suddenly missing the glucose test lol. Thanks

Answer

I did it myself 🤷🏼‍♀️ It was fine. Cervical checks are way worse IMO.

Answer

It was a little bit like “woah” but they don’t go inside your rectum just on the outside so it definitely wasn’t painful

Answer

You can ask to do it yourself, I always do.

Answer

It doesn't feel like anything. My midwife even let me swab myself so you can see if yours would allow that.

Answer

It takes 30 seconds and you dont even really notice it

Answer

Honestly I didn't feel a thing
