How dilated or effaced do you have to be for the hospital to keep you?

@alana_sunshine, ok awesome thanks

effacement doesnt really matter.. BUT u def have to be atleast 4cm..

@forevablessedx6, ok thanks

yeah but if your water breaks they will keep you even if you are not dilated much

@momtobeagain, great thanks

😊

Depends. I went home at 4 cm and 85% to labor at home lol. I ended up back 6 hours later at 7 cm

I only live 3 min from the hospital though so they gave me the option. I was much more comfortable at home

@mandy890, aw!! Lol

@lexirosex3, depends on progression. I was told that if no changes are made in an hours time they will send you home unless your water is broken

@amandafikes, oh okay cool thanks!

@lexirosex3, I was sent home when I was at four with baby number three. I didn't make any changes so they sent me home. I had him two weeks later.

anything after 5
