It wouldn't hurt to give the other hospital a call and see what they say.

I'm to the point of going to a different hospital but want to make sure they are not going to send me home. Even if I have to call an ambulance yo get me to the hosp quicker lol

That's crazy, they shouldn't have sent you home with contractions that close together, especially if your overdue, if anything they should find you a bed one way or another should be helping you along... is there another hospital you could try? So sorry you're going through this, I hope it gets better for you soon and the hospital quits giving you the run around.

Absolutely nothing with castor oil.  My contractions were close but my cervix wasn't dilating and they used the excuse "we have no beds available"

If your contractions are that close together then most hospitals won't send you home from what ive seen. They always say to head to the hospital once contractions are 5-7 minutes apart, Unless they're just BH of course.
