I had my baby at a further away hospital and have been discharged back to my own community midwives. They've come twice and said I have to go to the closer hospital (where they're from) for the final appointment to be discharged. Baby is 10 days old, I'm still recovering, so this seemed a bit rubbish really. I went along today and was told it was going to be a two hour wait, just sitting in the waiting room, so I left again. What do they do at the discharge appt? Baby was 9lb, has only lost 10 percent and I can get her weighed at the hv clinic anyway. Will they do anything else important or is this just for their admin purposes? Just wondering whether I need to bother persisting with it really.
