Thread: OK ladies

Are we have water breaking all over the place. LOL I can't wait to read some birth stories!

I was wondering the same thing. I thought it was hurricane season, but apparently it's flash flood season

Flash flood season .... heehee

This is a little crazy!! Isn't it sort of rare for labor to start after the water breaks? I swear I heard that only happens for 10% of women. Perhaps that number is based on all births (inductions included) rather than just natural births?

I can't wait "meet" all the little ones arriving via baby monsoon!

You're right--suposedly about 10% of labors begin with spontaneous rupture of membranes, that is rare in that you're more likely to have it not happen to you than to have it happen to you, but not rare in that it practically *doesn't* happen, KWIM?

I was thinking the same thing, but both of my doula clients had their water break first. I must have some sort of water breaking magic attached to me. LOL

I was thinking the same thing. Its like flood season for so many ladies this week. Can't wait to hear about all these births and babies! Exciting but totally crazy too.
