In this episode Rachel talks to Katie about all the wondrous and darn right fascinating things about the amniotic sac.

· Why is the baby surrounded by fluid, and what is it made of?

· Women are often told they have too much or too little fluid. Is this a problem?

· We also discuss why Rachel is (slightly!) obsessed with the function of the amniotic sac during labour

· We ask does breaking the amniotic sac (the waters) speed up labour at any point?

· What if your amniotic sac breaks before labour? We discuss the time the time-frames around augmenting labour when this has happened.

· And we discuss what if the membranes don’t break during labour?

All this and lots more for your eager lug’ols.
