Contractions every 2-3 minutes

Imaley

Made it to the hospital at 12am today been here 6 hours now last time I got checked a few hours ago I was 2cm not making any process but the contractions are so strong and consistent. I thought that means labor and that they can’t send me home but that might be an option. How the heck can they send me home with this pain!? Waiting for the doctor to check me again to see if I have dilated more..
