If you think or are convinced that your waters have broken, have a shower, eat something and make your way to the hospital. Do not speed as this is not an emergency. If you notice that the waters are green make your way in sooner.

Once at the hospital we will check to make sure that your waters have indeed broken. If they are not we will send you home.
If they have broken and you are not in labour we will admit you and induce you with a drug called oxytocin. This will involve you getting an IV and also being attached to a fetal heart rate monitor. You cannot eat or shower once the induction starts and the induction process may take a long time.

If you are Group B Step Positive please remember to remind the nurses that you need antibiotics in labour
