What went first for you?

Contractions first, my waters had to be broken at the hospital.

Same as above, contractions first, waters broken by midwife at hospital

Contractions caused my water to leak with my first, needed Dr to finishing popping it.

For me, I didn't want to experience the pain with my first so I went with an epidural, and that was a whole ordeal. Second it only worked on one half, and the contractions weren't nearly as painful as the varicose vein I had in my groin.

My third I well not be going with an epidural, since the other two didn't work right

With my first i was induced so contractions first then they broke my waters. With my second I had a spontaneous premature birth so my waters went first and then contractions hit instantly

My waters broke naturally but I never had contractions not even on the hormone drip. So I had an emergency C-section x

I was having contractions didnt even realize went in at 7cm for “cramps”turns out it was contractions they gave me the option to stay or go home until they got stronger or my water broke i went home to lay down with my dogs as soon as i laid down i felt a pop and then felt like i peed myself and went right back had my bbg 23 hrs later😭

I had period cramps then lost my mucus plug/ had a bloody show then contractions started. My waters didn't break on their own, they broke them for me in hospital. I will say it was a huge relief when they broke my waters the contractions were more manageable after that even though I was further along in labour.

My waters never went with any of my labours (3) contractions were always first and then waters broken during labour.

First child they went while pushing, second they were broken during emergency c section after labouring to 8cm and third they had to break to help speed up labour as it was on a go slow and was also a vbac birth so limited on what help could provide but it worked 👌🏻
