What do you do/did you do if your waters broke in public?
Seriously, I've always wondered this. What do you do if your waters break while you're out? If it happened to you, what did you do. It's hard for me to imagine, because my only experience was waters breaking after 2 hours of regular contractions, so I can't really visualise the whole unexpected rupture scenario. Do you offer to clean it up, or at least help? Like, if you're at a shopping centre, do you just leave it? Find someone to clean it? Do they even clean that sort of mess? What if it's on the footpath? Just leave it, attempt in futility to clean up with a spare nappy or some wipes? :rofl:

My mum was at Witches in Britches when her waters went with my first brother :rofl: As far as I know she just left it so she could find a phone to call my dad :lol:

Hahaha that's right Cat ;)
Well it seems the majority rule is to leave it, cool. I'd feel so...awkward. I'd probably get down and start wiping it up or something stupid. Maybe I should carry a towel with me everywhere. Douglas Adams was right!! :rofl:

One of the girls in my MG had hers break when she was out for dinner, sitting right at the back of a restaurant. Luckily it had a concrete floor. She said they just followed her to the exit with a mop :)

Dad used to run a second hand shop for work and a lady had her waters break in the shop. He told her (jokingly) to leave quickly so yet couldn't charge for the baby. She was relieved by the light humor. Dad just got a bucket and mop and cleaned up. He also gave them a clean towel for the trip home.
I wouldn't worry about it. Although I have started to carry a towel in the car so I don't mess my car! Rofl

I felt the trickle, left the restaurant, took my Italian purple suede shoes off and left footprints down Victoria street in Richmond! So no need to clean it up. A Huggies nappy in the car was nice and absorbent to use as a pad and a great addition to the usual towel.

Oh gosh that would be interesting I'd prob just run out the thought has crossed my mind as my waters broke with ds at home at there was so much fluid I'd prob run to bathroom and put on a mat pad and go home

I'll be wearing maternity pads when I go out closer to my due date when we have a third. My waters have broken at home with both my girls - while I was dozing early morning in bed with DD1 and while I was vacuuming with DD2 :D Both times I made it to our ensuite for the majority of it so it landed on tiles. I soaked through a maternity pad on the way to the hospital both times which was about a 20 minute drive. Given that though, it would contain a lot of the mess if I was at the shops I reckon. I will probably take a cloth nappy for mopping up any mess if need be as well.

Guess you didn't have to worry then? ;)

Nah, they broke a few minutes before DD2 popped out :p
