If it
is a hind water leak then let her go. It will proberly seal over. She's better
off at home in her own germs rather than risking the ones in hospital. Keep an
eye on her temp, white cell count and maybe ctg.
Hello wise women,
Just wondering if anyone has handy anything recent on PROM
and expectant management vs induction of labour? I've been reading my
ECPC (Enkin et al) but don't have the current one at my fingertips, having
lent it out a while ago. Just wondering if it's still a bit ambiguous
regarding the pro's and con's of IOL in this case. We have a woman just
over 35 weeks, who has had a small hind water leak. No signs of
infection, has had U/S and bloods, as well as a great ctg. She's keen to
rest and get to where she can birth at home. I'm great with that, the
hospital is NOT. Would just like to know I'm giving her good
information, as she's been told the old 'your baby might die' stuff at the
hospital before checking herself out.
Thanks in advance
Tania
