Where were you when your waters broke?

DS the Dr broke the membranes to speed up induced labour.
DD it all shot out at the same time as her head and turned the entire bath brown/green instantly. Gross.

awww Indi - I wanted a birth in the cawl too!

DS1 - broken by the OB
DS2 - on the loo just before jumping in the bath. Ended up going to the hospy instead of my bath, it was after the S&S

...and DS 3 was a slow leak over two weeks.

In the kitchen - I was having a big cook up to fill my freezer for when DS would arrive 4 weeks later - he arrived that evening!!

I had a slow leak too, at first I thought I'd just gotten to the point in pregnancy where your bladder just gave up the ghost, but when it kept happening I realised it was my waters :)

I got out of cleaning up my cooking mess though -my Mum came over and cleaned up while we headed to the hospy!

DS – 12:30am, in bed, clean sheets, pop and a gush, didn’t get a drop on the clean sheets – miracle!
DD – 5:20am, in bed, changed sheets 2 days ago, pop and a fairly fast trickle, still didn’t get any on the sheets – no miracle, I am clearly a genius!

in the back of the car 4 minutes away from the hospital and about 20 mins before ds made his grand and extremely fast entrance lol (dont worry we were prepared and had towels :rofl: )

DD#1: on the couch, while leisurely watching TV (no contractions, nothing, at 37 weeks)
DD#2: about a minute before she was born, by the midwife with a pointy thing ... before that, DD#2 was a bit stuck.
DS: on the couch again, during a particularly ouchie contraction, half an hour or so before he was born.

Pretty boring here too... DD it was during a contraction, during a VE ( :lol: the Obs wasn't sure if she actually did it...).

With DS it was while I was sitting on the loo in the birth centre - I'm very considerate, aren't I?

DD1 - The doctor used her lovely crochet hook.

DD2 - In the shower after a rather painful contraction, how nice was that, no cleaning up.
