GBS positive & induce

Hi can anyone please share with me your experience? I have GBS positive & is scheduled for induction due to some medical reason. Can I know does your Dr give the IV antibiotics together with the induce medication at the same timing ? Or only give the IV antibiotics first ? And only start to induce after the IV antibiotics cycle finish?

I recently had my baby and I was GBS positive and induced, so I understand your concerns. In my experience, the hospital administered IV antibiotics immediately upon admission, starting the induction process simultaneously. The goal is to ensure you receive at least one or two doses before delivery, so induction typically doesn’t need to be delayed unless necessary. Hospitals and doctors may vary in their approaches, so it’s best to discuss your situation with your doctor for peace of mind. Wishing you a smooth delivery—you've got this!
