What does it mean when you hear the phrase “My water broke”?
A
Your placenta is leaking
B
You need a new water heater
C
Your amniotic sac has ruptured
D
You started your period
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The amniotic sac is inside your uterus. It’s filled with a water-like fluid (called amniotic fluid) that protects the fetus. When the amniotic sac tears, amniotic fluid comes out of your vagina. This is your “water breaking, ‘’ and it’s a sign that delivery is right around the corner.

Detailed explanation-2: -A “pop”-This is less of a “how it feels” and more “how it sounds.” If your water breaks forcefully, it can sometimes be accompanied by a popping sound, which is the sound of the amniotic sac breaking. You can’t actually feel when your amniotic sac breaks/tears, however.

Detailed explanation-3: -What causes premature rupture of membranes? Rupture of the membranes near the end of pregnancy (term) may be caused by a natural weakening of the membranes or from the force of contractions. Before term, PPROM is often due to an infection in the uterus.

Detailed explanation-4: -A sudden gush of fluid from your vagina. Leaking of fluid from your vagina. A feeling of wetness in your vagina or underwear.
