Chlamydia @37 weeks
Hi! Please no judgement,
I am aware of how I contracted the STI (unfaithful partner) but am curious to see if anyone has been through this before. I found out so late in my pregnancy I am worried about my baby. I found out today in lab test results but after my OB office was closed, I will call tmrw morning and make an appointment to get antibiotics but is it enough time to help before my baby comes? Is there any other steps I’m missing?

So I haven't been through it, but I'm so sorry you have to deal with this!
I'd say you're on track, and calling your OB is the first step. They should be able to take it from there and get you sorted.
Personally, I'd go to the hospital to get treated rn. I'm so sorry girl
I cannot offer advice but here to show you love and support babe. I can only imagine your feelings and stress let alone heartbreak and disbelief.
thank you all for the support and advice! My OB gave me an antibiotic this morning, she said it should be cured by the birth and even if it’s not they would just give me extra antibiotics and all will be fine with the baby, a relief honestly bc that was my biggest concern.
Bless them! I pray that things only get better from here.
I had it when pregnant for first child in 2010, the antibiotics then were just for a few days and then I was good, just do not have relations with him again unless he has been treated for it as well, and whomever he was with treated too, or you can end up with it again.
Sadly at 37 weeks you could give birth at any time but the good news is your doctor will be able to make sure you get it as soon as possible and make sure to follow through with your birth with safe measures. It’s sad because too many women find out during their pregnancy and it breaks hearts
