Strep B UTI?

Hi ladies! Just wondering if any of you have had a urinary tract infection positive for Strep B? My midwife called today and started me on an antibiotic and said I would have to be treated again when I was in labor bec of risks to the baby. Have any of you had this And experienced any complications? I'm a nervous wreck.

Thank you!
