Pickle jar

Not sure if anyone has shared this so sorry if this is a repeat. A BTDT mom shared with me a word of advice while shopping near the end of pregnancy. Always get a large jar of pickles when you start your shopping trip. That way, if your water breaks you just toss the jar of pickles down, and act like you dropped it. I guess to avoid embarrassment of your water breaking. Made me giggle and though you ladies may enjoy.

Re: Pickle jar

  • I worked with a lady once that carried around a glass bottle of apple juice for the same reason ( we worked in a retail store )

    I always thought that was funny

  • That's funny!

    I wouldn't be embarrassed if my water broke though. I'm pregnant, that's something that could obviously happen. It's not like I just peed on myself. I don't understand why that would be embarrassing.

  • That is funny, but I don't think it's something to be embarrassed about. I do feel like I would want to try to clean it up for some reason. Why should that poor teenager with a summer job at target have to clean up baby water on aisle 5? Lol.
  • I really didn't understand it being embarrassing either, but found it comical that apparently a good many ladies do this.

  • Funny and now I want pickles!!! I agree with other PP though, I wouldn't find it embarrassing if my water broke in public.

  • I thought my water had broke last time at 38 weeks while shopping. Turns out I did pee myself I totally pretended it wast water. Way less embarrassing

  • I find it very embarrassing too and I will definitely carry a plastic bottle of apple juice everywhere I go, just in case!

    Thank you for this post! Lol
