I'm pg with my first and hoping to get out of hospital as soon as possible after the birth (assuming all goes well).
I've heard that with early discharge they'll let you out after 6 hours? I've also heard that the time of day makes a difference...if you give birth too late in the day, then you're not allowed to go home until the next morning?
If the baby and I are healthy, will I have to stay in? Couldn't I just go home?! Can they force me to stay?
I know I sound paranoid...I'd be really grateful to hear about other peoples' experiences. Thanks.
