From the time your contractions started ,how long was it till you decided it was time to head to hospital? And what if your 3 centimeters dilated already!

Its recommended at least 5 minutes apart

Once they were 5 minutes apart consistently. I live 40 min from the hospital we used.

@alisha_byers my first pregnancy I called the hospital and they told me just what I wrote here. (My second pregnancy I just went in). Both times I called when I was on my way in so they knew I was coming.

Oh, and living that far away, don't forget to take traffic into account! If its nearing rush hour, leave a little earlier.

I'm 3 1/2cm mine were 10 mins apart but not close enough. At least between 5-7 mins apart for at least an hr just go in

I was 3cm for a couple weeks and went into full blown labor at exactly 36 weeks when my water broke and then I waited awhile for contractions to pick up like 3 or 4 mins apart and had him about a hour half after I got there .

@alisha_byers, lol that was my third and I did not want to be sitting in the hospital uncomfortable because I don’t get the epidural so I wait it out at home as long as I can.

ohh ok

I went a couple times and was sent home. Then my water broke 😂. I was 3cm for a long time. Worst thing they can do is send you home or have you walk for an hour to see if you progress. It sucked going home those few times, but if you feel you need to go in, I still say go in.

Oh no ,I hope I'll only go in once
