Yep, and what support you have at home (practical support and medical support). After birth, it takes me awhile to get my strength back. First birth, i stayed in hospital 4 days and still needed a wheelchair to get out to the car and extra support at home. Second birth was at home, but i had daily midwife visits, my hubby was off for a few weeks and we had other practical support in terms of meals and helping out with my DD. If the 2nd was a hospital birth, and i didn't have the support available at home, i again would have wanted to stay a few days til i started to feel stronger.
