Luckily I had put a towel down in bed and it caught most of the wetness when I stood up. It continued to trickle out for the rest of the day hike I was in labor.

Went in, had the trickle tested and sure enough my water had broken. 24 hours later I was admitted into the hospital for an induction. It never got worse than that initial trickle. The second time it was a huge gush just as I stood up from the car at the ER valet center. Don't remember if there was any trickling afterwards since I had been in labor at home all day. Baby girl was born 20 ish minutes later. bhbee on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656975 Sun, 25 May 2014 07:40:17 +0000 bhbee 1656975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I had the huge pop and gush ... On our white sofa ... Doula had just had me try a position with my leg up on the back. I remember wondering if we should put down puppy pads but never did it ... Yikes. Luckily couch was washable and taking all the covers to the laundry was on dh's to-do list after the birth!

I was in water at the time so I didn't feel the extra fluid. Actually a sort of bubble of the bag of waters was the first thing to stick out when I was pushing, it felt like a strange soft balloon..

I had no idea what was happening. I thought I was peeing myself, but it keep gushing out. Let's say I had very little sleep and it was 3 1/2 weeks before my due date so I was very confused at first.

I was thinking there's no way I peed myself! Then it kept gushing every time I moved. Yuck. matador84 on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656559 Sat, 24 May 2014 16:34:20 +0000 matador84 1656559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ At home with DS, on way to hospital with dd-trickle with first, gigantic pop huge gush with second. mrskc on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656553 Sat, 24 May 2014 16:20:19 +0000 mrskc 1656553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It was a gush but it didn't break until I started pushing. pelikila on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656549 Sat, 24 May 2014 16:11:56 +0000 pelikila 1656549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I voted other: Yes it broke on its own but I was laying down on my side in transition at the hospital and it didn't trickle or gush. With each contraction it felt like I peed a little but it was only during contractions. anonysquire on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656545 Sat, 24 May 2014 16:05:22 +0000 anonysquire 1656545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I think I might have broken it? I thought I was loosing water because my belly measured smaller so I was paranoid and did the squat test and then BAM!!! So not really sure what happened... Luckily I was in the bathroom! photojane on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656511 Sat, 24 May 2014 15:23:04 +0000 photojane 1656511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Had mine broken to begin my induction. Weirdest feeling ever. I'm hoping it doesn't break on it's own next time - it's a mess! bunnylovesbear on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656488 Sat, 24 May 2014 14:44:34 +0000 bunnylovesbear 1656488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I voted "trickle," but it was definitely somewhere in between a trickle and a gush. There was definitely a little puddle, I had to change my clothes and sit on a towel for the ride to the hospital bc it continued to slowly trickle out afterwards. Totally crazy sensation... almost like you peed your pants and couldn't control it.

I went through 4 pairs of pants, I would think it stopped then more would leak out. lamariniere on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1656461 Sat, 24 May 2014 14:00:57 +0000 lamariniere 1656461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Water broke for both of my LOs before any contractions, both times it was a gush! With LO1 I had just peed, so I was still sitting on the toilet, very convenient! With LO2, I was sitting on LO1's bed about to read him a story when it just gushed out of nowhere (at 37 weeks). LO1 said "mama made an accident!".

I stood up to greet a coworker on my last day before maternity leave and felt like I peed my pants! I knew I didn't pee as I never had bladder issues but I definitely ruined a chair and my pants!

I felt a little "pop" and then wetness, but it wasn't a huge gush. It basically stayed like a constant slow stream over the next few hours. It was more than a trickle though, I definitely couldn't ignore it. lawbee11 on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1655933 Fri, 23 May 2014 20:50:24 +0000 lawbee11 1655933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It broke on its own but while I was at the hospital. It was right before I got my epidural so I was probably around 5cm when it broke. Huge gush! yerpie110 on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1/page/2#post-1655932 Fri, 23 May 2014 20:50:23 +0000 yerpie110 1655932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup, at 4am!

When I went to sit on the toilet it gushed.. so good timing!

It was a slow trickle, so I ignored it for like seven hours before I called the doctor! opps. I was in denial, since I was only 38 weeks along. lovehoneybee on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1#post-1655720 Fri, 23 May 2014 18:25:24 +0000 lovehoneybee 1655720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Mine was a pulsing gush, but it was broken in the hospital when I was at 9cm. jhd on "Did your water break on its own?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-water-break-on-its-own-1#post-1655714 Fri, 23 May 2014 18:23:07 +0000 jhd 1655714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I just got out of bed after taking a nap when it broke.
