I'm currently in Week 34 weeks of pregnancy so 6 weeks or less the baby could come.
I wanted to find out how others delivered: with epidural vs anesthisia and if you had any flare ups with the GBS? I'm trying to figure out if I should try to do natural (if I can as not sure due to lots of loss in core/ab muscle).
I know it's extremely rare to be pregnant and have GBS.
DO you currently have GBS? I had GBS at 18 and at 28 and 29 gave birth to my 2 daughters. Both natural with epidural. Although I have residual weakness in my legs which still affects my life, I had no problem with the births. Hope that helps a little.
Yes I currently have GBS and am pregnant. I was diagnosed at week 24 but started having symptoms as early as week 12 in pregnancy. So really nervous that the stress of giving birth with epidural or anesthesia will cause a flare up. My Neurologist doesn't believe it will cause a flare up. I thought i would seek if anyone had GBS while pregnant. Thanks Janey for your help!
