Can I ask how quickly you managed to get discharged after second or subsequent births? I gave birth to DC1 just after midnight and DH and I were allowed to stay in the delivery room til morning. They then asked me to stay in one more night in the postnatal ward and it was hellish - feeding was fine so I wish I had just gone home the day after the birth.
Now due with DC2 and if there is no medical reason to stay I want to go home ASAP (as soon as I get feeling back in my legs if I have an epidural!)
How quickly did you all manage to go home after straightforward births?!
