After your water breaks, contractions usually follow within 12 to 24 hours, if they're not underway already. However, in some cases, women have their water break before their bodies are ready to start the labour process. Premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) usually requires induction to get things moving.

If you are under 24 weeks of pregnancy and the baby is born, sadly, it is unlikely the baby will survive.
