In America we swab for gbs in the third trimester weeks before labor, and if the test is positive women are given antibiotics that wipe out their gut microbiome which drastically effects the heath of the baby. The thing is gbs is a normal bacteria and it can come and go at any time. The swab two weeks before labor means nothing weather it is negative or positive because it can be here one day and gone the next. Other industrialized countries with better infant and material mortality rates do the wait and see method because of the risk benefit proportion.

Pelvic exams are unnecessary and just cause women anxiety puts them and baby at risk for infection, and can cause “accidental” membrane sweep ect. It is not indicative at all of when you will go into labor ❤️
Does your care provide expect to routinely put their hand inside you without asking for consent or discussing risk? If so, its time to find a new care provider!
