Rumer Willis reveals she had to break her water HERSELF after going into labor trends now
Rumer Willis revealed that she had to go to unusual lengths to give birth to her first daughter in a new interview.
The 34-year-old eldest daughter of Demi Moore and Bruce Willis shared on Mondays' episode of the Informed Pregnancy podcast that her water had not broken by the time that she went into labor.
In order to keep the process moving along, she shared that she had to break her own amniotic sac.
Rumer, who welcomed her daughter Louetta at the end of April, previously said she planned for an unmedicated birth.
She shared in the podcast episode, the second of a two-part series, that she was joined for the birth by a doula, along with her mother Demi, her sisters Tallulah and Scout Willis and her partner Derek Richard Thomas.
Uh oh! Rumer Willis, 34, revealed on the Informed Pregnancy podcast on Monday that her water had not broken by the time she went into labor in late April
Taking charge: She told the podcast hosts that her doula let her puncture her own amniotic sac to get the process moving
Rumer explained that labor moved quickly for her, and she 'dilated from 2 to 8 inches in about an hour,' she said, via People.
However, her water never broke during that time.
The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood actress moved into her bathtub after she started feeling an urge to push, but even then her doula confirmed that her water still had not broken.
'She was checking me and felt my water bag bulging, but still not popping, which was wild,' Rumer recalled.
'And so, I was like, "Well, should we break it?"' she added, noting that hhe doula let her take the lead.
'She goes, "Well, you can." I'm like, "What?" I was like, "Are you serious?"
The celebrity daughter felt around for herself and was able to confirm that the amniotic sac was still intact.
'I reached my finger up there, and I'm feeling and it was crazy,' she continued. 'I could totally feel this little bag — it feels like a water balloon, but with a bit tougher skin.'
