I was asked if I wanted to walk up to the post natal ward, but I requested a wheelchair. After a 22 hour labour I couldn't even hold my eyes open so it was a silly question in my opinion lol!!
Went home less than 24 hours after VB & actually just had to ask DH how I got downstairs - have no recollection!! He said they basically brought the wheelchair into my room & there wasn't really any question - I got straight in. I held DS while he carried the bags & nurse pushed the chair. Then DH went to bring the car round to the front of the hospital where I walked out with DS, which I do remember lol. I rode in the back with DS.
I also remember being really surprised driving home that the world was just going along like normal, like nothing momentous had happened. I actually said to DH "Doesn't anyone know I've just had a baby?!" LOL
