Hi Melanie Try gentlebirth... http://www.gentlebirth.org/archives/gbs.html
Hi wise women of the list, I am curious if anyone can enlighten me of any alternatives to Antibiotics in labour to decrease GBS transfer from mother to baby. I recollect some info about douching during labour, but the info was sketchy to say the least. I understand the risks of transfer are low and the risk or negative effects are even lower, but alternatively have witnessed a birth of a GBS positive mother where AB's were administered and the baby still developed respiratory distress with several hours of birth and question the validity of using AB'a at all. Any advice on the matter would be greatly appriciated. Melanie -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
