Hi Ladies,

Just wondering if you can give me some advice on if / how you prepared for your waters to break. I believe it's only 25% chance of them breaking as the first sign of labour however 1 in 4 is still quite high!

Should I be sitting on a towel when I'm at work / in the car / on the couch? I really don't want to be cleaning it up when I'll be focusing on other things...also don't want to have someone else do it for me - how embarassing! Should I get a waterproof protector for the bed or will it not come flooding out when I'm lying down? I can't imaging it being easy to get the smell out of the car...????

What was your experience? Was it a gush or a slow leak?
