Following discussion with you in hospital, your midwife will arrange transfer of your care to the community midwifery team and you will go home. The midwives will discuss with you when you can go home. For some women this could be within 12 hours after the baby is born. Before you are discharged (go home from hospital) we will run through the discharge procedure and give you information about how you can access support and sources of help. If you are travelling home in a car, you will need to bring a baby car seat or have carry-cot restraints fitted to your vehicle.
