You are probably right that the hospital just wants to make sure you have one but its really NONE OF THEIR DAM BUSINESS
and it is making my blood boil that they think they can just withhold your child from you until you follow “THE RULES”
We go 20 comments deep before anyone objects to this??? Stunning. Absolutely shocking.
Not sure we can even handle freedom any more.
Thanks, K.
How about if you don’t like the hospitals rules, don’t go there. That’s how things are supposed to work.
The hospital wasn’t going to release us with our newborn because we didn’t have a car seat carrier to strap her into for the wheelchair ride out of the hospital. I told them I would hold her in my arms in the wheelchair and when we got to the car we had a rear facing car seat already strapped in the car. They said no that she had to be in a carrier car seat. I told them I was leaving with her even if they didn’t discharge me. They acted liked I was being unreasonable but they discharged us. This was 7 years ago. I am sure it has gotten worse. If I had to do it over again I would have my babies at home.
