Best Answer

Only if you are very cautious. Pregnant women are more susceptible to infections due to changes in their immune systems during pregnancy. It would be best if you wait until your health care professional advises that you are not contagious, or until the woman has checked with her obstetrician for precautions that may be needed if you can not wait.

If you were diagnosed by a professional with a "strep throat" (streptococcus bacterial infection of the throat), and have been given a prescription for antibiotics, usually you would no longer be contagious after taking the medication exactly as prescribed for approximately 48 hours. However, it is possible to still spread germs even if you are taking antibiotics under some conditions, so it is always best to get professional advice for your specific circumstances.
