Will this pose a problem for the leather seats & seat cushion underneath the leather?

[RED2001GT]

I would like to know if there is any chance that the leather seats or if the inside cushions of the front seat themselves can be ruined if they are drenched with bodily fluids from when a woman's water breaks while she's pregnant?
Also, will the interior seat cushions underneath the leather be stained and smell from the bodily fluids that were emitted from when the woman's water breaks? I would like to know because my lady's water broke while I was taking her to the hospital and all of her bodily fluids went deep inside the seats of her car. Luckily, this incident didn't happen inside my Mustang.

I dont think anyone has actually sat down and tested this, but Im gonna say Yeah

wow.. definitely a new topic...


I will say the leather can be cleaned but if any got down into the padding it will probably have an odor.

Amniotic fluid is very pale in color, so it won't really stain...and doesn't have too much of an odor. Just take the seat apart (separate the skin from the cushion) and wash everything. Should be fine. Also a deodorizer will neutralize anything smelly, if there is anything.

Congrats on the baby!!

We had a beautiful little boy. And this incident with my lady's water breaking happened over 2 years ago. It's a good thing that I was driving her to the hospital in her own car and not in my own Mustang. She's got leather seats in her car and they are the type of seats with the little round holes in the seat cushion, so the fluids actually seeped thru underneath the leather and deep into the cushion. I haven't realized any bad odor so far, but I was wondering whether or not her bodily fluids stained anything under the leather? She really drenched the seat when her water broke while she was sitting inside the car when I was driving her to the hospital. It's a good thing that she doesn't have a power passenger seat, otherwise her bodily fluids from the water breaking could have shorted something out.

Oh believe me, she's very fresh. No bad odors whatsoever. She's so fresh and clean that I can eat off of her down there.

You might want to take her car to Macco to have them run an odor analysis on amniotic fluid. But be sure to tell them exactly what to test and how to test it, because it's been 2 years since the incident there may still be some trace levels of amniotic fluid. They may only use the "sniffer" test, where the technician will proceed to sniff around the seat cushion which has little round holes in the seat cushion, where the fluids actually seeped thru underneath the leather and deep into the cushion. But I would demand they use the litmus test, it's far more accurate than the sniffer, and can more accurately detect traces of the amniotic fluid.

Based on the results they may ask questions like...(seriously) why did you wait 2 years before doing something about it? And if you're unsure after 2 years that there is a problem at all then probably there isn't since you're asking. If there was you would be like opening the door and going "Phew! This fawking car stinks!" Common sense applies very well in this situation.

I will give you credit for one thing mang, you make some crazy azz threads

 

[mustangkid05]

use leather cleaner? lol

I think this set a new stangnet record for the number of times the words "bodily fluids" were mentioned in a thread.

 

[GettinThere]

Do a search.

Thank you. I want you to know that this thread that I made is not made up. This incident really happened.
I decided that I am going to leave everything the way it is with my lady's car. It's already got 120,000 miles on it and she might trade it in for something else within the next 1 or 2 years. The leather on the passenger seat looks good and there is no odor present. I think that her bodily fluids just dried out on to the foam cushion which is underneath the leather.

Do a search.
On what?
