Closed Fund routine early testing of pregnant women for Group B Strep

Closed on

My beautiful angel Ella was born asleep on the 17th of January 2020, I feel if I had been tested earlier it would have been monitored and maybe I would have my baby in my arms. I only found out I was a carrier when I received Ella’s Post Mortem results which showed the cause of babyloss.

I would like the Government to fund routine early testing of pregnant women for Group B Strep, to try and avoid anyone else having to go through the same trauma I live with everyday.
