BTDTM who were strep B positive
When my sister had her first she was on antibiotics during delivery because she developed a fever. My nephew was in NICU because of it. Well last night my mom and sis said my LO would probably be in NICU also since I'll be on antibiotics during delivery. Is this true?

Same here. I went into labor before my Strep B test results were in so they put me on antibiotics as a precaution. I could be wrong, but I think babies go to the NICU if a fever is involved & not just because you're +/on antibiotics...

Your nephew was in the NICU because your sister had a fever during delivery, not because of the Strep B or the antibiotics.
