At thirteen weeks. Definitely proven by ultrasound and the constant stream of fluid. Impossible for the pregnancy to continue, and yet she had already reached twenty four weeks when she came to see me. She didn't want to terminate the pregnancy so she started antibiotics and was arranged to have further tests. She didn't return.
This morning a registrar rang me from another hospital to say she had come there in labour at thirty two weeks and the baby had survived after a period of intubation.
It certainly wouldn't have lived if she had taken the advice of experts like me.
