5 days, but dd2 was a crash cs, I had a GA, and I felt like I needed to be in hospital for the first 3 days.

three nights for second.
first was emergency, and I didn't get out for a week.
btw i think they count the day of delivery as day 0 so it doesn't count. I was nice to have the quiet time with ds2 to be honest, though it was god to get home

4 nights, by choice. They said I could leave after 2 but I loved not having to look after my toddler or cook meals!
