Can you have sex while in the hospital if premature ruptured membranes?

? and kill baby ?: Premature rupture of membranes removes the protective envelope that shields the fetus from germs. They likely have you there hoping your membranes will reseal, or in case they detect infection and need to do an emergency c-section to save baby. The worst thing you can do is introduce any chance of more germs entering the vagina. I have seen a mom and baby both die from that process. Abstain!!!
