If your water breaks and you still aren’t dilating will the baby go in distress? Shouldn’t the doctor hurry and get the baby out?

What's It To You?·
I believe it depends on the length you've been in labor.
They broke mine for me to help progress my labor and I didn't give birth until a couple hours after.
If they see any sign of baby in distress they will act swiftly.

Mine broke and I wasn’t having any contractions. I walked around for about 2 hours and nothing. Called the dr he said go to the hospital. They didn’t want an infection to happen. After a few more hours her heart rate started dropping so they induced me. If that hadn’t happened they would have just let me keep walking around trying to start natural labor

There’s a risk for infection

You usually want to get the baby out in 24 hours due to infection risk.
