If my water breaks while I'm @ work? Since I work in retail this worries me, because if I am waiting on a customer or something, I am going to be so embarressed! Is there any sign that you know your water is going to break, so maybe I could make a dash for the bathroom or soemthing?  |

Ah, the age old fear of mothers-to-be!
My wather did not break to start labor so I really don't know from first hand experience. However, I hear that if your are standing up when your water breaks, that your baby's head acts like a stopper, so the fluid leaking out won't be a big rush of fluid like it may be if you were laying down.
IF your water breaks at work, you will probably just feel a little trickle running down your leg, or maybe even just in your panties.
Ahhh, the FUN of being pregnant!  |

Not a whole lot you can do there. Mabey you should take off work now? You will know when your water breaks. I had mine broken in the hospital THANK GOD! It is terrible, fluid gushing out all over the place! I did get up once in a while to go to the bathroom and it still gushed out all over the floor...poor nurse haha! Just keep your fingers crossed that it wont!  |

I think you should take to wearing a pad, my waters broke with my first standing at the counter waiting to see my doctor for my 40 week check up! How lucky was that ! It wasent actually alot,it just felt like a slight gush ,maybe 1\2 cup and really sticky! but every one is different ,so I 'd wear that pad!Good luck  |
