What does it look like when your water breaks? does that mean labor is starting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Water broke.: When the water breaks, you'll notice a obvious amount of fluid coming out of the vagina and traveling down your legs, for example. When the water breaks, it's time to get to the hospital.
