If you're at least 34 weeks pregnant, the doctor may want you to give birth to lower the odds that you or your baby will pick up a serious infection. You need to go to the hospital right away for PPROM.
Had problems with your cervix during pregnancy.Had vaginal bleeding at any time in pregnancy.Have an untreated urinary tract infection.That’s called preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PPROM). Talk to your obstetrician or midwife about what’s best for you.Ībout 3% of women have their water break before their 37th week of pregnancy. Studies show that babies born to mothers who are induced right away are less likely to get infections, need less intensive care, and go home from the hospital sooner than infants whose moms who watched and waited. Most women go into labor within 12 hours on their own. Or they might start, or induce labor, for you. If you’re within 3 weeks of your due date, the doctor or midwife may have you wait for a few hours to see if you go into labor on your own. If it isn’t obvious that your amniotic sac has ruptured, they can run a simple test on your fluid sample. They’ll usually tell you to come to their office or head straight to your hospital or birthing center. If you think there’s any chance your water has broken, wear a pad (not a tampon) and call your doctor or midwife right away. And remember, amniotic fluid doesn’t smell like pee. A rapid gush that feels like you’ve peed in your pants.It feels completely different for everyone. Still, it’s important for you to know the signs. It also can happen long after labor starts.
Usually it’s more like a trickle than a geyser. In real life, about 10% of full-term labors start this way. Along with cravings for pickles and ice cream, a pregnant woman whose water breaks suddenly before their contractions start is a cliché you may have seen many times on TV. If your water breaks before contractions start, it’s called prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM). That’s when you start feeling contractions and your cervix thins and widens so your baby can pass through. This can happen before or during your labor. When your body gets ready to deliver the baby, your water breaks and drains through your vagina. Also called a bag of waters, it makes room for your baby to grow, keeps them in a steady temperature, and cushions the umbilical cord so it won’t get squeezed. This sac of amniotic fluid holds your little one snug and safe in your belly. When you’re pregnant and your water breaks, it means that the fluid-filled sac around your baby has ruptured.
