Your patient is G3P2Ab0 and has regular contractions. If her water has not yet broken, which statement is true?

The correct statement is that the infant may be delivered without the bag of water breaking. During labor, it is possible for the delivery to occur while the amniotic sac, or bag of waters, remains intact. This is known as a "forebag" delivery. In many cases, it can happen especially in multigravida women—those who have had more than one pregnancy—where the cervix and vaginal canal may be more accommodating.

While the rupture of the membranes can sometimes facilitate labor progression, it's not a strict requirement for delivery to take place. Additionally, the presence of intact membranes does not prevent the fetal head from descending into the birth canal and being delivered.

Factors like the mother's contractions and overall progress of labor play a larger role in determining when delivery will occur. In many cases, labor can continue effectively even if the membranes have not ruptured.
