postpartum hospital discharge?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Postpartum hospital discharge typically occurs 24-48 hours after normal vaginal delivery, and 2-4 days after cesarean. The discharge decision is made by your doctor and requires these criteria: stable vital signs, controlled bleeding, normal urination, baby has begun nursing, baby's breathing and temperature are stable. Before going home, ensure your car seat is ready, home temperature is 22-24°C, and baby's room is set up. Before discharge, pediatric exam, hearing test, and newborn screening are completed. Don't forget to schedule your first postpartum and pediatric checkups within the first week.
