If it was me i would go n if they try to send me home n if i feel although i need to be there I'd sit in the waiting room or in th car, my younger sister went to the hospital n they went to send her home, she decided to go to the toilet before she went home, she could feel the head then 17 mins later baby was here, if she went home before going to the toilet she would of had baby in a taxi

My waters only ever broke at the very end so plsed she's going in, I've got 3 days left this is my fourth pregnancy and I've just had my first sweep. I'm 3 cms dilated but my cervix is still quite far back so dies that mean I've got a wait on my hands? So excited!  Good luck with the birth XX

Go to the hospital!!! If there that close together they shouldn't send you home!! And I believe that your waters can break just before you give birth! There don't need to break for you to be in active labour! :) good luck hun!
