Default What was the length of hospital stay for your c-section?

I am just curious, because I have found that was is the norm where I live does not seem to be the norm everywhere else.

Here, they encourage you to leave after two days, and if, like me, you did not feel well enough to leave after two days, you pretty much are on your own on day three. I didnt quite stay three days-it was more like 2 and a half when I was up to leaving (had the section on a Thursday night, left around midday Sunday).

They did assess my pain and ask if I felt I needed something for pain during the first 24 hours, but after that I had to page the nurses and ask for it if I wanted something.

This time with baby Ava, if all goes well, I am going to try to leave in two days. I will stay the third if it really, really hurts for me to move, but since they dont do much for you IN our hospital on days two and three, if I am feeling decent I would like to come home since my DH can help me out and attend to me pretty well at home.
