To speed up or induce labour the bag of waters may be broken by the midwife using a hooked instrument. This is often carried out in conjunction with a drip of a synthetic hormone into the arm to stimulate contractions.
I had to have my waters broken with Alex because his heart beat was slowing down and the midwife wanted him out fast!
