My water broke and I had my baby 26 hours later. Refused any intervention and no iv, or vaginal checks. All natural

For me, my water broke then maybe 10 minutes later contractions started. And I was throwing up with every contraction until I got the epidural. Reallllly hoping I don't go through that with this baby lol

It changes with every person. You should definitely contact your doctor if you think your water has broken.

When I had my daughter my water broke and I didn't have any contractions at all. When I went to the hospital I ended up having to be induced because I wasn't having contractions or dilating.

You can have contractions before your water even breaks when I went into labor with my son I was having contractions every 3-5 minutes they broke my water at the hospital
