Can you shower if your water breaks?

Nothing yet Chat Icon Just curious! My water never broke with DS but I want to try and labor at home this time for as long as possible. I hated being strapped down in the bed with DS.

I asked at the last appointment & was told ABSOLUTELY! Blinderman even said to soak in the tub some!

Hopefully if i am going to hold on, I go into labor the same time as you, then I know I will end up at S. Nassau Chat Icon

You can shower but my doctor and everyone I've spoken to said you cant take a bath b/c bacteria can flow back up to the baby. Plus, would you really want to try and get out of the bathtub when you are THAT preggo. Chat Icon

Re: Can you shower if your water breaks?

I did. My water broke in the middle of the night. I called the doc and asked "can I shower before we head to the hospital"? He said absolutely!!

Good thing I did, because it was a looong time before I took another shower.. Labor lasted for 32 hours followed by a c-section.
