Hi,my daughter got it at 40days old. thank God it was dignosed and cured early enough and now at age 20 she is a healthy child. she had issues after the strong antibiotics but now she is fine. I hope the same for your baby. Ask doctors for a check for you as mayebe strep b is the cause

Hi my daughter had it and stayed in hospital for 15 days on various antibiotics, she recovered completely and is a very happy healthy 5 month old. She is being followed up until the age of 2 by consultants to monitor her development however they have no concerns xx
