How long was your hospital stay during delivery?

When i delivered my baby at the hospital, i stayed there for two days. My friend on the other hand, chose to stay there for a week instead. She says she’d rather rest at the hospital than be home alone with the baby. Her husband is away at the office all day long and only comes home late at night. Her mom was away on her holiday and wont be back to help her with her newborn. So, she feels the hospital is still the best place for the first week after her delivery. Easy for her cos it’s her first baby. Things are different with me as i still have another toddler waiting at home for my return from the hospital with baby. Hubby can only do so much, lol.

I asked her how she spends her days at the hospital as she dont have to keep an eye on baby. The nurses will bring baby over to her to be breastfed. Thereafter, he will be sleeping at the nursery until his next feed. I chose to room-in with mine though cos i just want to look at him all day long, lol. Silly me. I should be resting and i didnt do that. She brought her laptop along with her to the hospital though. Her husband accompanies her at night. It can be boring for him so what he did was he went and did sports betting at GTLT Sports to kill time, lol. At least he’s willing to stay there at the hospital with my friend. Cannot complain much, huh.
