I'm just wondering how many of you had your water break on its own naturally or if the doctor/nurse had to break it for you.

I'm due friday so it's just on my mind that it could happen at any time  

With my first it happened on its own.
With my second they broke it during labor.

My labor started first. It broke on its own, but after I was admitted.

With my first they broke it for me about 33 hours into active labor. With my second it broke on its own about 8 hours into active labor.

Doctor broke my water. But I was induced for medical reasons. They said I didn't need cervidil and just went right to breaking my water and giving me oxytocin

My water broke hours before my labor started

With my first I was induced so the doctor broke it, with my second that smurf exploded allllll over my bed while I was sleeping :-) good times

It broke in its own on the 5th (full) day, 30 minutes before I delivered.

I was induced at 41+11 and my waters were broken at about 6cm i think xx

In my three vaginal deliveries my water has never broken without the dr, and my first two were born within minutes of rupture. My third was nearly born in the sac but dr ruptured it as his head was partially out.

Thanks everyone! I'm really nervous it's going to happen in public or something! My SIL (who works at the airport) told me the other day that some lady was picking her mom up at the airport and her water broke right there in front of everyone. Talk about good timing for your mom to come! Lol.

I might mean 40+11 lol

With my first I was induced early at 37 weeks because of severe pre-e...and they broke my water..instant worst contractions ever.

With my second I was induced at 40 weeks with just the lowest amount of pitocin and an hour and a half later my water broke on its own. It scared the smurf out of me because I was half asleep and wasn't sure what that loud noise/feeling was LOL. Again..lots of pain, but not as instant as the first time around.

I was induced but it broke on it's own at the exact same moment my doctor was coming in to break it lol.

With my first I was in labor all day the day after my due date.. I had to wait for my contractions to get closer together before I could go in, and around 1am I had a strong contraction and felt a pop and my water broke.
