Can partner take baby home from hospital if I have to stay in? 🇬🇧🇬🇧
I'm having a planned c section. Last time was during covid and it was horrid as was in awful pain, had a bad reaction to the oromorph and I pretty much was passing out.
I had to stay in for 2 nights after the c section. Baby was fine. My husband can only stay until 10pm. If baby passes all checks can he take the baby home with him? I won't be allowed to be discharged until at least the following day so it would be around 12 hours without baby with me.

I don’t think he can! There’s a big thing recently where the baby has to be carried out of the ward by the mum too 🤦🏽♀️ but that’s in wales maybe see if you can plan something !
My friend had a c section in march and she was out within 6 hours and she was unwell after her c section too!
No, the baby stays with its mother.
I had twins via c section and was under observation for 7 days. Neither were allowed to go anywhere without me. Unless they're with medical teams.
No baby stays with mum for bonding especially if mum is breastfeeding
Just seen your in Wales but in England I think it would be fine unless things have changed since I had my daughter 4 years ago. I was in intensive care thou, so my husband had to take her with him as babies born in England cannot stay in intensive care.
