Ladies, can you tell me if it's possible to not notice your water breaking at all? Does it always start after contractions, or is the scarier thought that you might continue walking around without your water and not even realize it?
Last time I was at the prenatal clinic, the doctor said that the Ministry of Health decided that if…

I remember it pouring like crazy. About half an hour later, the contractions started

I was wondering about that too last night… I got really scared that they might break in the bathroom or shower and I wouldn't notice. I started Googling. And everyone has a different opinion, some say you might not notice, others say you definitely will…

But now I'm keeping these triggers in mind:
- the baby moves more painfully
- your belly might get smaller if a lot of fluid has leaked
- and most likely, the water will continue to leak

If it leaks, it's impossible not to notice. If it's leaking, it might be, but it also replenishes itself. The main danger here is infection.

I don't know how you wouldn't notice, they say it's possible. They induced my contractions later, and it took about 12 hours.

Oksana I remember inserting suppositories and wearing panty liners. I changed them often and didn't notice anything unusual, like a gush. When contractions started, they examined me and said my water had already broken. Luckily, I was already in the hospital at that point.

From my experience, no. My water broke. It leaked with every movement. I walked around, did some squats, and realized it was my water.

It's impossible not to notice, and you might not even have contractions. That's how it was with my second.

I didn't even notice my water was leaking. I was in the hospital for observation, and they only noticed it during an ultrasound.

If your water breaks, it'll run down your legs and drip onto the floor. Pads won't be able to absorb it all. And since it's constantly refilling, it'll keep leaking and leaking. After 2-3 hours, I had a C-section because I still wasn't having contractions.

Oh, it's very noticeable, hard to miss. The first time I woke up at night in a wet bed, and the second time it happened in the evening while I was still awake. Contractions never started, they had to induce labor.
