If your 37 weeks, and you go to the hospital with irregular contractions and your 3 cms dialated, will the hospital keep you, or will they send you home?

ur going home...i believe you have 2 have active contractions or something like that but at 3 cm ur most likely going to go home unless u keep dilating

[kay-kay]

No they will not keep you, I was 4 cm and they sent me home, but I had so many false labors that I almost had my son at home in the tub, and by the time I got to the hospital I was 71/2 cm, and 30 minutes later he was out and screaming at the top of his lungs! It will be soon enough! Congrats and Good Luck!

if your contractions are irregular, they will most likely make you walk until they become regular, then they will recheck you, it is alot more to do with the contractions, there regularity and severity than the amt. of centimeters you are unless your like 9 or 10. so be prepared, they may even try to stop your contractions since you still have 3 weeks to go. then send you home on bedrest.

They will send you home...4cm is considered active labor with regular contractions

4 cm. unless you have somthing that might risk the baby's or your heath best to make a emegency doctor appointment

If you are not having regular contractions, and if they do a couple of checks that show no change in the cervix, then no, they will not keep you. They only keep you if you are actively laboring.

It depends on the hospital, but they would probably send you home. I was 3 cm dilated last Thursday at my appointment and I'm at home. If you're not having regular contractions or your water hasn't broken then you'd probably be wasting a trip to the hospital.

They'll send you home. If your contractions aren't consistent, they won't keep you there.
