I think I've read that water break before contractions about 1/4 of the time. Although in movies and on TV it seems to be 100% of the time....
HA HA gotta love movie and TV labours they crack me up now that I have experienced labour. How do they birth such clean babies .
But saying that I had a movie labour water broke at 2am then straight away 5 min apart contractions and bubs was born at 5:47
