Kookie, that is good your area screen for GBS.

It is a pity this wasn't around a few years ago, and we seem to have loads of info on the subject now too.

My friend lost two babies to GBS, she has as you can imagine she has never recovered from this terrible loss. She very bravely did a presentation on GBS at college to educate others about it (at the time I hadn't even heard of it)

She has four other children and is a great Mum, I will tell her that screening for it has started, she will be happy to know this...
