I'm Currently Feeling: | You would still know, becasue when you get out it would still be coming out. It is one initial big gush, but the water keeps leaking out until delivery. My water was broken for 3 days and leaked the whole time. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | you would probably get some strong contractions shortly after and know something was up. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Also, I hear most of the time your waters are warm, if you're in a cool-ish bath you should feel them if they happen to come out with a huge gush. |

| I've wondered this too - I'm not convinced I'd know, what if I'm already in a hot/warm bath anyway? And some women's waters break early and don't have contractions - so if I were in the bath and they broke and I didn't have contrations - I would never know?
Unless its true for everyone that it still trickles out after the initial big gush?
Oh now I'm confusing myself! |
