My water broke this morning!

I didn't even realize it at first! I went to work and noticed a lot of leakage, called the dr. had me come in and sure enough my water had broken! They sent me home and if I don't start having contractions today they will induce me tomorrow morning! I'm hoping I don't have to get induced that I'll go on my own.

Now, what do I do to pass the time!

    Oh wow, congrats! How exciting.

    I would just relax, if you already have everything ready for baby.

    Try and take a nap... GL

    Congrats!! Just a question..why didn't they keep you in the hospital? Mine broke with my DS, and I delivered 7 hours later. Was just wondering.  Enjoy your evening!

    How exciting - Good luck!  You should definitely rest up, you don't know how long you will be in labor.  I don't know that I would be able to rest myself, but I would probably try.

    That's really odd that they sent you home with the high risk of infection. Every doctor/hospital that I know want you to come in immediately if your water breaks so you don't get an infection.  And on top of that, I gave birth 8 hours after my water broke so that's another thing that seems odd to me.

    Good luck anyhow!

    Good luck! Sleep as much as you can today because I'm sure your contractions are just around the corner!
