37 weeks preg, not dilated one bit. can stress cause my water to break?

Maybe: You definitely can break your water without being dilated. That happens all the time. Whether stress or any other event can precipitate it is unclear. But if you think you are leaking see your doctor today. If you are ruptured, it is time to get delivered.
