    if you're worried about it call up your assessment centre and tell them and they'll probably tell you to come in and they'll check you out.

    this is whats got me worried ,its my third baby so i should know if my back waters have broken and they have.but they just told me that they hadn't with no test or anything so its like ive just got to take there word for it .but i think this is wrong they shouldn't leave me like this .one more thing thats got me mad is when i got home i phoned my mw and she just said thanks for letting me know and just to phone the hospital up if pains got any worse.

    my back waters went at 28 weeks, and they didn't seem concerned as the hospital said the body can replce them.

    my actual waters went at 34+6 weeks and i was admitted to hospital, but no signs of labour and they were talking about leaving me for a couple of weeks before they would induce, but luckily i went into labour 48 hours later by myself. but as a result of them leaving me with no waters i had an infection, which i also passed to my baby.

    Hi my waters broke with my lo went into hospital and was monitored. They said if contractions didn't start within 24hrs I would be indiced due to the risk of infection. Also they would only do a maximum of 2 internal exams due to the risk of infection. Luckily I went into labour 3 hours after my waters broke. If you are unsure I would call your midwife.x Good luck

    my bk waters broke with my first two days b4 i had him. had to stay in due to risk of infection. depending on how close to ur due date u r and how busy hosp. is they should have kept u in. If u feel worried or angry SAY SO to mw doc ect. Sometimes u really have to spk up to get wot u want.

    looking at the dates of these messages uv prob already had LO. Let us know
