Thanks ladies. I have a client who had a very sick baby last time. She is convinced it was from GBS though she tested negative and they just told her he has some pnemonia. She wants to go on a preventative regimen this time just in case.

I think the preventative is a great idea either way. It certainly won't hurt and it's much better than getting antibiotics at the last minute or the babe being subjected to painful and sometimes scary tests and assessments. And with her worries, this will help put her at ease.

Good luck!
