Where I live they won't admit you still you are Haveing strong contractions or water breaks so I could be at a 5 or 6 they would send me home if I have no con like wow that gives me no hope that ill be admitted soon
With my first i was 10 days over due and in labour for 4 days the hospital kept sending me home it was horrible i was finally admitted because i couldnt take the pain my water didnt break on its own the doctor had to it. Some hospitals i guess like to wait it out as long as possible. Hang in there mama once your holding your precious baby you will Forget all about the pain.
@tyrellp geese I would be so mad and irritated. Why didn't they schedule to have you induced
@spookylyn I'm not in active labor nor has my water broken. If I get to a 5 I would want them to keep me I don't live close to labor and delivery so i wouldn't be able to keep getting sent home
@spookylyn oh I would deff make them keep me if they sent me home I wouldn't go lol
Why would they keep you if you’re not in active labor and your water hasn’t broken?
@beakymcspence yeah was at a 2 on Friday don't know what I am now or if I even dilated more
@jenny955, People walk around weeks 2cm dilated. I’m an L&D nurse that’s very common. I personally walked around 3cm dilated with my daughter Memphis. Hopefully your babe bakes a bit longer ❤️
@laniejay its a general statement and thata how my state is I guess and they almost kept me for his heart rate going down I wasn't in active labor
@jenny955, It’s pretty standard anywhere that they will not keep you unless your 4cm dilated, membranes have ruptured, or in active labour. Of course theres exceptions to the rules if baby is in distress etc. Your only 37 weeks it’s common to remain at a 2 till 40 weeks. Being 2cm dilated doesn’t mean much in the big picture really unfortunately as it’s not considered active labour.
@beakymcspence yeah I know I could be 2cm for weeks everyone is diff. But a lot has changed my mom got admitted at a 3 with me and no high risks either
@jenny955, awe, you know my former name ☺️ well a heart rate issue would be a health issue. If you and baby are fine, you’re not in active labor and your water hasn’t broken - then there’s no need to keep you. You’re not even full term yet. Put your feet up, relax and let baby finish baking.
Ps- I was 4.5 cm with my 17 yr old for weeks. Sent home at 5.5/6 because contractions weren’t consistent. I went on to be overdue.
@beakymcspence actually 38 weeks tmrw! And wow this is my first and I'm excited about a 2 geese
@jenny955, I was high risk they didn’t admit me at a 2 🤷♀️ It’s just protocols. Try walking or doing some stairs 🤞🏻
@jenny955, 2 geese? Why are you being so confrontational here no ones saying a 2 isn’t exciting your complaining they won’t keep you because that’s not active labour 🤷♀️ GEEZ not Geese lol Don’t post if your going to crap on everyone who comments because it isn’t what you want to hear 🤦♀️
@laniejay he doesn't have any health issues he's fine it ended getting better and sent me home
@jenny955 hospital didnt keep me because my contractions were not close enough. It was the hardest labour i ever had. My other 2 i had to be induced on my due date. You will get there just try get as much rest as you can your going to need it.
