39+6 and waters broken but no contractions
Hey! So I’m 39+6, my waters went at 11:50pm, it’s now 3am. How long before contractions start?
I’ve never experienced this before, for both of my previous pregnancies the contractions always started first and then the waters went, even my last one I was pushing the baby out and that’s when the waters went.
I know they say labour should start within 24/48 hours otherwise they have to induce due to risk of infection.
Has anyone experienced this before? 🤣 I can’t sleep! Phoned hospital and they said they’d ring me in the morning to come in to be checked, and told me to get some sleep 😂 but to call if anything changes with movements or regular contractions etc. how can anyone sleep when I’m so excited for this to happen haha.
