😳 How to Know Your Water Has Really Broken 💧🤰
Many women confuse normal discharge or urine leak with their water breaking. But here’s how to tell 👇
✅ Signs Your Water Broke:
Sudden gush or steady trickle of clear fluid 💦
You can’t control or “hold it in” like urine
Keeps flowing even when you change position
May have a sweet smell (not like urine)
❌ Not Water Breaking:
Small drops that stop when you tighten muscles
Thick discharge or just increased vag!nal wetness
💡 What to do:
Note the time it happened ⏱️
Check colour (clear is normal, green/brown may mean baby stress 🚨)
Go to the hospital — don’t wait for contractions! 🚑
Your baby depends on that fluid for protection, so once it’s gone, labour should not be d£layed.
