  • With my first three I always had contractions and the nurses broke my water when I was between 5-7 cm dilated. I'm currently 28 weeks with baby #4 and overly excited to see whether she'll do the same as her big brother and big sisters. My first three labors lasted 7.5 - 8 hrs start to finish, my children were all 7lbs 2 or 3 oz and 20-21 inches long.
  • Contractions first. Doc broke my water and 17 mins later my lil man
  • Contractions started around 11am....got to hospital around 4pm...epidural at 7:30pm...then had my water broken shortly after that. DS arrived at 8:15ish the next morning.

    Contractions first. In fact, my water never noticeably broke. I leaked a little head water right before I started pushing, but baby came out with all the water together.

  • Water broke first, didn't have contractions for at least 2 hrs afterwards.
  • With DS1 and DS2 I had contractions first and my water broke right before I started pushing.

  • Contractions came first! With first son, I never even noticed when my water broke. I assume it was while I was pushing. With my second, it was immediately before pushing - my water broke and his head just dropped like a bowling ball, lol. He was out in seven minutes.
