You can be 5cm dilated and they’ll still send you home? I thought you’re admitted at 5? Or is it only 5 dilated WITH contractions?

I think it depends on the State and Hosptial.. I know in Maryland you only have to be 3cm and they keep you.

I think it’s when you’re dilated past 4 they keep you , but maybe you’re not in active labor ? Did your water break and are you having contractions?

@danielle.saunders02, neither, I was asking because my aunt is at 5 now, but they sent her home instead of keeping her and said she was just having Braxton Hicks. But I thought that’s when they for surely admit you.

@brittany_blessing, that’s odd . Did she go in because she was having contractions and they made her wait and see if she progressed? Braxton Hicks don’t make you dilate , but sometimes you can be having actually contractions that make you dilate but they stop .

You have to have contractions too. I was at 5cm for awhile before I was actually in labor.
