I had a test to see if I was leaking amniotic fluid, but he just got a little bit of fluid from up there and put in on some paper to see if it changed color. I am only 6 months though. Does that help?

The only test I know of like that is a test to make sure you are not subject for preterm labor. It is called a Fetal Fibronectin screen. Hope this helps

Strep B - if you test positive they will give you antibiotics during labor. My daughter had her baby Oct 6 and she tested positive. It's really no big deal other than you getting the antibiotics in your IV during labor.
