Good video - but one thing she left out is - IF your water has broken - YOU MUST go to the hospital ASAP.

You only have to go to the hospital ASAP if you tested positive for group B strep so that you can get your antibiotics.

Come on the only real reason -right- to wonder is you've been in the pool or shower

@dawner78 Unless you're having baby at home, like we are :) We just have to call the midwife! No stress :)

awwww! what a cute kitty!

that is not actually true. You have the option of starting labor at home. You don't have to go to the hospital until membranes have been ruptured for 24 hours. That is when it becomes PROM. Prolonged Rupture of Membranes. That is why she explains so much about not introducing anything into the vagina.

You're the one giving me spelling lecture when you can't even spell the word "what" properly. And it's "you" and "are" not "u" and "r". I wrote that comment 7 months ago, it was a simple mistake, and you're calling me a "crappy dumb shit". I believe you are the one that needs to get a life, finding stuff to pick on people for.

AND if you DID pay attention in the first 4 seconds, she says, and I quote;

"When you're in labor and your water brokes"

Look at 0:01 to 0:04.

YOU are the "dumb ass".
