How long after your show did your waters break/did you go into labour?

[pecanpie]

So excited - 39+1, was late last time and didn't have either a show or waters breaking naturally. So how long did it take?

oh and i know it could still be ages but have been incredibly hormonal all day so hoping...

Have your waters broken?

With all 3 of mine my waters broke either minutes before or AS they were born.

first time round i had a show on thurs morning and went into labour early on the monday after it

can't remember with the other 2

No waters...

Show at 9pm, waters went 3am, DD2 born 7.45am.

Fingers crossed for you.

ooh...not sure if this is purely psychological but am getting infrequent but significant pains in back/lower tummy already... Hope this is the start of something if only to save me from having to spend 2 more mornings (at least) this week at the hospital for monitoring.

In Labour since 3pm, Show around 8.30/9pm, Waters had to be done artificially, DS born at 1.50am

Am 38 weeks with DC 2 and booked for induction next mon due to severe SPD and hope that it is as quick [wishful thinking emoticon]

Good luck hedgehog. Am hoping my labour is quicker than last time or that I am allowed an epidural as quickly as possible!!

With my ds I had a show on the Saturday night, my watrs went 4am on the following Monday, First contraction about 3pm on the Tuesday, ds was born in time for tea (17.59)

first - show sat morning, went into labour sat night, water went in hospital sunday morning, born lunchtime.

second - show 9pm at night at home, waters at 11pm in hospital, born midnight.

my friend had show at 39 weeks and was induced at 42 weeks

Any developments pecan?

Show 8.30pm
Contractions by 9.30pm
Hospital at 10/10.30pm
Confirmed in active labour at 11pm (and demanded pain relief!)
Epidural too late to take effect, topped up before I chose to share that I had the urge to push.
17 mins of determined pushing and little girl born at 4.07am!
Despite labour not being a pleasant experience, went pretty well overall - no baby distress, so baby delivered right onto the bed where DH and I could see her, have a cuddle etc. Would (almost)consider having another one already!!

Wow! Well done you. What is she called, what did she weigh etc?...

Congratulations.

oh wow!! COngratulations

6lb 14oz (3.something kilos). Name TBC as we didn't know what we were having!!

Within 24 hours of the show both times I went into labour.
Waters have never broken naturally :-o
Had to have them ripped open with instrument at like 8cms dilated

Wow, congrats!

Oh congratulations!!
