Waters broke yesterday, no contractions still!

Waters broke yesterday at 3pm spontaneously, honestly just like the movies! No contractions have begun yet and the hospital have indicated they will want to review me at the 24 mark, I think I’ll decline induction until we get to the 48hr mark. Just have to hope the contractions begin soon! Need to get oxytocin flowing!

Same here, mine broke when I sneezed yesterday around 1pm lol. No contractions either. They said to stay at home until the contractions are strong enough that I can’t hold a conversation. She’s deffo moving around less now, perhaps because less space! Hang on in there, won’t be long now 🤞xx

My waters didn't break the first time and i I'm sort of hoping they do this time. I keep thinking they are about to go as I get so much pressure but nothing happens. I'm getting fed up now and want baby here

@Sian baby should not be moving less, you should get checked if you think that

@Sian seconding Rebecca, please call triage and tell them she's moving less! Movements should continue even when you're having contractions x

My waters broke first at 9.30pm last Saturday and I had gone in to be induced on the Sunday and when I checked in at 8.30pm my contractions started and I went on to have the natural labour I had intended - not sure if it was because my waters had broken or what but my labour only lasted 5 hours 🤣❤️ so be hopeful ladies!

@Sian baby’s movements shouldn’t change due to labour or waters breaking x
