What is strep?

It's very normal for this to happen. I had it with my first two pregnancies. They give you an IV during labor. There are a few dosages. With my second baby I didn't have enough time to get all the dosages so they kept the baby for one more night just for observation.
Don't stess over it. Good luck.

It's not a huge deal as long as you know about it and are getting the antibiotics for it. It's without the antibiotics that your baby can be harmed. 30% or more of women have it. It's ok try to relax hon. I know it's scary but they caught it so all will be good. :)

They are making me take antibiotics now and I'm only 9 weeks.

I had it with my first pregnancy. Took oral antibiotics at about 13 weeks, then had two bags of iv antibiotics during labor. My doctor recommended not waiting as long to go to the hospital so they would have enough time to get the antibiotics in me. It's not a huge deal.
