Our DIL is expecting our first grandchild. She’s been on the internet “talking” with other women that are pregnant. Some in the UK tell her that they will normally be discharged in only 6 hours after the delivery.
Under normal conditions, I don’t see anything wrong with that.
If there are complications, a medical reason to stay, well, then, by all means.
But under normal conditions? May as well recover at home. Why stiff taxpayers with the bill for something completely normal?
