It’s safe to breastfeed your baby if you're carrying #groupBStrep.
Breastfeeding hasn't been shown to increase the risk of GBS infection and offers many benefits to you and your baby.

Late-onset #groupBStrep infection affects babies 7 days -3 months old.
Testing for GBS in pregnancy & antibiotics in labour WILL NOT reduce the risk.
If you think your baby has LOGBS infection, URGENTLY contact your midwife/doctor & mention GBS.
