Perhaps the hospital meant that she couldn't take her baby home if she didn't have something to carry her in? I know at my hospital they do not let you carry your baby out of the hospital - you have to have a capsule or a pram to carry bubs in until you get to the car. I think it's a health and safety thing - ie you might slip and fall while holding your baby, causing injury to bub, which then leaves the hospital open to legal action if you were so inclined
Think you have something there Bon.
My middies wouldnt let me carry her out - and I so wanted to!! lol They told us we had to use the plastic hossie bassinet to wheel her out in.
But you can imagine some people suing the hospital because they tripped with their baby!
