My water broke on its own both times... The first time was a small trickle after I got up from the couch- contractions started 30 min later gradually increasing in frequency and intensity... happened at 9:30 and hubby was home... contractions started at 15-20 min apart and ended up at 3 min apart before I left for the hospital.. I didn't even know my water broke... dilated to 4cm...labor was 12.5 hours long pushing was 35 min...
My second my water broke while I was cleaning- one big contraction and then a huge gush and I knew it broke immediately... I was at home with just my 3.5 year old and my phone was dead... contractions started right about at 2-3 min apart... had to find a charger and call hubby, then called his dad to come watch my daughter and take me to the hospital,  and had to wait in agonizing pain until somebody could get me... I called the hospital and let them know I was coming... got to the hospital contractions 2 min apart... dilated to 6cm... labor 5.5 hours... pushed 3 times

My first I had a wonderful pregnancy with only cravings. My second I was always hungry and eating so much and the more I ate I was so hungry but yet lost weight somehow. My third I had to be induced due to health complications. And this one ,my final one , I've had it all! Nausea , vomiting, aches, pains, bleeding, swollen feet, swollen vajajy, rib pain, pelvic pain. Ect ect.

My water broke on its own with my second and third at beginning of labor (before hospital) The Dr broke my water with my first. With my fourth it didn't break until her head came out. With my fifth it broke 5 mins before he was born. Everyone is different
