If you’ve never experienced your water breaking, you could mistake urine it when what’s really happening is urine leakage. The enlarged uterus causes pressure on your bladder which is the cause of leakage.

When your water breaks, it can be very dramatic with a gush of fluid. Other times it’s more subtle. The best way to tell if it’s urine leakage or a water breakage is by going to the bathroom and emptying your bladder. If the fluid doesn’t stop, you’ve broken your water.
