re: HELP!

but what about people who have water births? the baby comes out in the water, so why wouldnt you be able to take a bath? just curious! and confused

u should go back. with my daughter my water broke before i went to the hospital and they told me if my water wasnt broken they would have sent me home cause i was only 1 cm dialated and they said i had to deliver within 24 hours. what ur doc told u sounds a little strange to me.

When my water broke at home, I was shocked that it kept coming out over and over again in gush's soaking everything. I was in labor for seven hours and with every contraction the waters would gush out some more. I had asked the nurse why that was happening, and she said because your body keeps making it till the baby is born. Just now that the water bag has broken, the water keeps coming out.

I would call your doc as well, and ask his advice.

I don't think labor is far off!!

even though your body still makes water, their is a risk of infection because you're babies environment is now suceptible to so many things.

I will be thinking of you. I don't know if I could just sit at home if my water had broken. Good luck hun!
