While listeria infections can be mild or even asymptomatic, your scenario is quite nonspecific. For diagnosis of listeriosis, a positive culture is needed of body tissues or fluid. I wouldn't institute antibiotics based on details you provided, but you may want to ask your obstetrician for advice to see if he/she concurs.
