re: Not diliated

Yea my water broke at 38weeks and I was not diliated
So they gave me pitocine I was in labor for 2days

<blockquote><b>Quoting Mommy3/17:</b>" I want to start dilating because with my 1st child when I went into Labor I wasn't diliated at all and ... [snip!] ... options I really don't want a c section and two weeks just don't seem Like enough time..mayb I'm freaking out for no reason"</blockquote>



Refuse a c section and google ways to get baby to naturally flip. I believe one is just getting on your hands and knees and rocking back and forth. Another is putting something frozen on the top of your belly and something warm on the bottom.
My water broke when I was 10 days overdue. I was not dilated at all when they checked me just hours before that and I had my son 7 1/2 hours later. Just because you had one smurffy experience doesn't mean you'll have another.

Same doctor? I don't like them.
Refuse pitocin, refuse a c section etc etc. Pitocin can actually slow down labor and it will make you miserable if you're not ready.
Just because your water breaks does not necessarily mean that baby needs to come out NOW.

if the baby is not delivered in 24 hours after the water breaking the mom and the baby is at a great risk for infection.

No, but it does mean that if labor DOESN'T start within 24 hours, the risk of infection increases and that puts both mom and baby at risk.

Agreed. Same dr? Find a new one. Spinning babies.org or .com idk which.

Its not the big deal doctors these days make it out to be. Some let women go a week or more after their water breaking if they choose. It does not mean "omg her water broke we need pitocin NOW".
That's what I hate about hospials. They turn labor into an emergency and a scary "bad" thing rather than something beautiful and joyous.

The water is there to support and protect the baby. If there is no water or very little water the chances for cord compression increases. If the cord becomes compressed then the baby can die due to lack of oxygen. No something that I would be willing to chance.

The risks associated with a woman's water breaking and labor not starting are NOT worth it to let her go a week. The baby could suffer a prolapsed cord(which could lead to distress, brain damage, and death if not treated). It's just not a good risk letting a woman go a week.

Have you ever done thorough research on this topic? The only ones who actually believe what you're saying are OBs aka trained surgeons. Ask any midwife and she will say it's perfectly safe to go longer than 24 hours.
Also, just because your water breaks does not man there's magically none left. You continue to produce amniotic fluid. My water broke, leaked a little and stopped. Obviously not every single case is exactly the same.

there is a difference in a leak and a break! If your water BREAKS the baby and the mother are in danger. I started leaking water at 19 wks and delivered at 36 wks 1 day. My water did not break until the day I delivered. Any mid wife that has any knowledge in their field will know that if your water has truly broken the baby needs to be delivered.

This. Agree with your other posts too.
Your chances of infection are extremely low if you don't let anyone stick their hands in your vagina after your waters have broken. It's the ridiculous checking for dilation that introduces bacteria. And like you said, you don't run out of water when your water breaks.
Risk of prolapsed cord with spontaneous rupture of membranes is extremely low as long as there are no interventions, like pitocin. It's artificially augmenting labor and artificial rupture of membranes that puts you at risk for cord prolapse.
OP, your doctor, like so many in America and Canada, is not practicing evidence-based medicine. Search for a provider who supports vaginal breech delivery, fast.
