Did they with your 2nd/3rd?
Waters didn't go with DD, I'm now 30 weeks and wondering what the odds are of them going this time around.
My mum's waters never broke with lall 3 of her pregnancies.
Not important but just wanted to ask :)

I actually pushed some of my waters out in a big bubble that kind of looked/felt like a water balloo. Filled with warm water. Midwives just kind of popped it lol. Anyone else had this?

My waters didn't break with either of my children, midwife had to break them

1st one a week early, but 2nd a week late

Mine didn't break with either.

First time around they must have gone at some point, but I don't think I had much, there was certainly no great gush!

Second time around, the midwife popped them when I was fully dilated and out DC2 came!

Mine didn't break until the pushing phase either time.
