I was 2cm dilated when my waters were broken with DD. Turns out that was all my body was waiting for to go into labour properly after 3wks of constant prelabour. I didn't have any gels or drips as I was having VBAC and had GD as well, so the decision was made at 40+2 to have my waters broken. If things are favourable and you are already having the odd prelabour/irregular contraction every now and then, then there is a good chance that breaking your waters could get things moving
Oh and my DD was born 4hrs and 43mins after my waters were broken
