Anyone else want their water to break naturally?

Question

So this is my third and final planned baby. I really want to experience my water breaking at a random time and place, ok, preferably at home because I’d be soo embarrassed if it happened in public😖, but I’ve heard my moms story of her water breaking with me and it just makes me want to experience it. I’ve read it only happens to about 30% of women and you obviously can’t make it happen. Just wondered if any other mommas felt the same way?!?

Answer

Not me!! My sisters water broke while she was sleeping and she woke up in a puddle. She was 37 weeks. She went into the hospital they tested her by running a strip down there and said it was negative. She got mad, pregnant mad, grabbed a strip out of the ladies hand, started wiping it all over down there, handed it back to her and demanded they “test that... I didn’t pee myself!”
She was right, it was her water breaking! They would’ve sent her home and that can be dangerous!! I’m scared that’ll happen to me now!

Answer

I felt that way when I was pregnant with my 4th after 3 inductions! I got my wish and then had to ride an hour to the hospital with giant contractions and gushing water all over the car! 😂 It was an experience I wouldn't change for the world though 😊 I am hoping to go into labor naturally again with this 5th and final little love!

Answer

Mine broke naturally in the hospital but it wasn’t all that exciting of a time. Literally just a tiny hush of fluid, told the nurse I thought my water had broke, she swabbed to confirm, changed the chuck under me, and we went about labor. It’s never like the movies.

Answer

I feel the exact same way lol.  I actually was going to make the same post a couple weeks ago.  This is my 3rd a final pregnancy/baby and I just want that exciting moment.

Answer

I'm hoping for that too. The doctor had to break my water last time.

Answer

Same, they broke my waters as her head was coming out! Would be interesting to experience it x

Answer

Nope not interested!!

Answer

Mine broke at home (while I was trying to put shoes on) & then I kept leaking fluid for the next 12 hours (it felt so gross) with strong contractions but very little dilation.  In the end they had to put me on increasing levels of Pitocin to ensure baby was born within 24 hours (to avoid the risk of infection).  On the Pitocin, I went from 2cm to my little guy being born in just under an hour ... needless to say I had no choice but to deliver without pain meds.  I’m actually hoping my water doesn’t break this time!

Answer

They had to break mine in the hospital. I didn't want even them to do it initially but I was pretty far along like an hour from pushing. 
2nd - no opinion.  Curious what it would feel like but don't want to deal with the mess lmao. My doctors are like put on a diaper you don't need to come in after it breaks unless you're 5-1-1 so not interested in that.  Whatever happens happens.
