I was in hospital for 5 days after DS, and I loved it. It gave me a chance to focus 100% on BFing, and general baby stuff, without having to worry about cooking/cleaning etc. Plus the food in my hospital was great
you sound like me haha i stayed 6 days with all my kids think maybe 7 with oen first born was vb and it was 6 days i was a heavy bleeder... the nurses offered and i took it with both hands i needed it..

second time round was the same but i had c section and had some troubles recovering.

third and 4th well with kids on top and home to be concerned about i socked up that every moment i could have with me and bub as i knew after csections again i would not be able to recover well at home. As its hard to rest with other kids.
