ABSTRACT: Premature triplets each developed late onset group B
streptococcal disease over a period of nine weeks. The source of the organism
appeared to be expressed maternal breast milk, in the absence of clinical
mastitis. Asymptomatic excretion of group B streptococcus in breast milk may
be an under-recognised cause of neonatal infection.
