I'm getting closer to my due date and I'm a bit nervous about labor. I've heard about water breaking, but I'm not sure what it feels like or what exactly happens. Can someone explain how water breaks during pregnancy?
In my experience, I felt a mild 'pop' inside my stomach and then a continuous stream of clear, warm fluid started leaking out. I didn't have any pain at first, but we rushed to the hospital anyway.
Oh god, this was my biggest fear! I kept thinking what if it breaks while I am sleeping or in the market and I don't realize it? It usually feels like warm water trickling down that you can't stop. Please keep your hospital bag ready and call your doctor the second it happens!
It's simple: either you get a sudden gush of water or a continuous slow leak that doesn't smell like pee. Don't wait for labor pains to start. If your water breaks, put on a pad and go straight to the maternity ward.
For some, it's a huge splash, and for others, it's just a tiny leak. Don't worry, you will definitely know when it happens! Just stay calm, grab your bags, and head to the hospital with a smile.
I was literally eating my dinner when I felt a sudden wetness, like I peed my pants but couldn't control it. It doesn't have any smell like urine. If this happens, stop eating and head straight to the hospital!
My mother told me it would be a big splash, but for me, it was just a slow drip. My doctor had advised me that if there is any leaking, we must go to the hospital within a few hours to prevent infection. Trust your doctor and go get checked.
