Nope you will be just fine,if you do catch it you will just be put on antibiotics.
strep can be bad if left untreated,but you should be fine.
congrats,and good luck

"All Wives-Tales!!" No it cant hurt the baby, at all !! This is in his throat!! Whoever told you this, was just trying to "stress" you out!! What a mean person to tell you that!! And dont treat your son like he's some kind of orphan, because he's sick! Some people make way too much out of things, when its such a waist of Positive Energy!! Think positive, and pray, for a healthy baby, is all you have to worry about!! And taking care of yourself, during your pregnancy... As far as your son goes, Nuture him, love him and God forbid, when this baby comes, let him be a part of the whole journey... Let him hold her/him, on the couch, just sit the baby, on his lap, and dont yell at him about how he handles him/her.. Tell him with Love, in your voice, how, he needs to sit back, all the way, and hold the babies head, just right, and allow him to feel like he's apart of this whole new life, of yours & your husbands! Or you will really start getting a child whos feeling very left-out, and will do anything to get attention! And it will only be because he is being left out, and his feelings are hurt by it.. He came first, now all of a sudden he's last!! In everything! Its sooooo important, to not make him feel any less important, then the baby, is... Strep-throat, is a mere throat thing, I wouldn't be all acting like he's got Malaria, or something towards him!! Just love him up, and give him the Medical attention, he deserves, and the love he deserves during his illness... He needs "Comforting" in his time of sickness, not being treated like he doesn't belong in your home!!! Poor Kid !!!

I wouldn't be worried, I have three kids and with my last pregnancy my kids were sick a lot. During that pregnancy I even got the chicken pox and that didn't even hurt the baby. You are the baby's shield just be sure you wash your hands a lot, and don't drink after eachother because you don't want to get sick. And even if you do get, it won't be the end of the world. Just continue to care for your little sick guy and then kills all the germs around the house with some lysol. Be sure to get all the door knobs too. Good luck. Take care. Hope your little one gets better soon.

No, it can't hurt the baby. The best way to prevent ANY kind of germ is handwashing. My husband is a Dr. and he says the best thing to do is wash your hands after everything, touching a shoppiong cart, entry door, ect. and use paper-towles instead of regular hand towles like in the kitchen or the restroom. Some people just like to rinse their hands with water& no soap. this does nothing to stop the germs! Congrats on the new baby!!

i've never heard of such a thing, and I've heard lots of things. But to be fair to your six year old you should probably spend minimal time with him and still manage to show your love. Explain to him why you need to be a bit distanced until he's over the cold however like I said I've never heard of such a thing about premature labor over a strep throat.

no, just try not to catch anything, and always wash your hand when coming in contact with an infectious person.
