Strep B test complete...

Yesterday, I went to the doctor to have a Strep B test done. Basically, it is performed in pregnant moms-to-be at or around 36 weeks to see if you carry this particular bacteria. It is safe in a non-pregnant state but if you are pregnant it can be harmful for baby during delivery and could cause infections, etc. So if you DO have it, they put you on antibiotics to kick it before delivery time! I won't know until next week if I have it or not. I will tell you this, the test is not that bad, but never-the-less, it is not something I would want done everyday mind you! :-)

I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season and if you are traveling, take extra care! I am sorry it has been so long since I have posted...seems like time flys when the holidays arrive!
