Let's finally speak facts: that water doesn't break unless you allow it to break.

Wouldn't hanging out in a walkin freezer/fridge or someplace cold freeze said water? That way the baby wouldn't be able to break through the ice and have to wait another day to be born.

I might be getting biology wrong.
