What Causes Water Like Discharge In The Last Month Of Pregnancy?

Hi, my partner is 2weeks from full term; and since 2 am this morning she has been leaking water blood like fuild. I took her to the hospitial and they said it is the membrane whcih has come away which mean she shoud be going into labour soon. However, they have told her to go home; since there is no membrane is there a risk to the child by them not keeping her in.

Hi,
Thanks for your query.
I understand your concern.
Actually when membranes rupture, usual strategy of treatment consists of to put the patient under umbrella of antibiotics ( to prevent infection ) & induce labor pains after admission of the patient in hospital.
In this respect I would suggest to c have asecond opinion to confirm leaking & rupture of membranes & also about home management of labor pains in leaking patient.
Thanks.
