So I had my OB appt today. Doc said that I'm 80% effaced but closed. He said he doesn't want me to go into my 40th week, so as long as everything is looking good and I haven't gone into labor on my own, he will break my water next week. How exciting!!

But, I have a question: Can they break your water if you're not dilated?? Seems like I remember reading risks about this or something too. Anyone know?
