A member asked:
What are some things i can do to break my water.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ABSOLUTELY NO!!!: Please do not attempt to break your own water by puncturing or in any other way manipulating the cervix or amniotic sac. You do not want to put your baby at risk. I know it is miserable these last weeks, but if you need to be induced somehow to spur on the delivery of your child let the doctor worry about this. Please do not do something you may regret later.
