Tested positive for strep b

Hi ladies,

So I am currently 36 weeks and 5 days and a first time mom. I got tested for strep b at 36w2d. I got my results back and it turns out I did test positive. Therefore I have to get the antibiotics before baby boy is born. I am very upset and I feel very gross about myself.. I know it’s a common thing but I just feel gross about it all. Like is there anything I could have done to prevent this? Has anyone else felt this way after getting these results? Looking for advice on your experience.
