The bible nor history supports your statement that being 'born of water' means from your mother's womb.

Do you have any such evidence?

You will find it in the Rabbinical writings of the first century.

Remember Nicodemus was one of the members of the Sanhedrin.

This was part of the discussion of being "born again"
See John 3:3 , John 3:7 & 1 Peter 1:23

You will see that Peter clarifies the common Jewish understanding of the first century.

1 Peter 1:23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed,
but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
