Swimming pool in 3rd Trimester?

Question

I love swimming! Especially with this heat and being so big now I absolutely love to go for a nice cool dip! However, yesterday I was swimming and I was wondering if anyone has had their water break in a pool? Would you even know? This is my second and with my first the Dr broke my water so really I have no idea how the natural sensation is. I'm worried that it will break in the pool and I won't know & it will be dangerous for my baby considering you never know exactly how much fluid you loose so you should never wait when it breaks...😳😓???? Anyone?

Answer

I felt nothing when my water broke.. Just wet. Mine also had two large gushes but some women go in one gush or a trickle. If you broke in one big gush in the pool you wouldn't know if contractions didn't also start. But if it broke at a trickle you would just be dripping continuously once you got out.

Answer

I felt a pop with both of mine so maybe you'd feel that.

Answer

I think you would feel some type of pressure... But I'm not certain.

Answer

I've had this same question recently! Like how would ya know??! Some women say there's a pop feeling and then it breaks but that's not always the case. This is also my second and Dr broke mine first time around.
