Sounds like if you can see L&D from home, you could easily fashion a zipline for you and baby.

I think it’s gonna depend on whether you tear or end up with a c-section or have a relatively smooth birth.

its 50/50 just depends on how your birth goes.

My apartment is on the third floor and we don’t have an elevator. Everyone scared me that I couldn’t walk up the stairs after my C-Section. I was literallyyyy fine!

Why not? If you feel good, take a leisurely stroll home.

I gave birth at 413 in the afternoon and was discharged the next morning around 10am (which was annoying I had to wait that long). That afternoon I was walking around my towns annual carnival. It’s really all about how you feel! Granted this was 21 years ago and idk what the discharge protocols are nowadays, and i’m in Alaska.

1. I am in NYC and walked home with my baby after my second.
2. Not sure I could have done it with my first, I was a mess. BUT if that's the case with you, your partner can just take the baby home in a stroller while you take a car service! Have a good friend join you if you're a mess and don't want to be alone. You don't need to be glued to that baby and it's an excellent lesson for EVERYONE in learning how to hand off care for a newborn.
3. Night. Nurse. It is the best money you will ever spend. Get $$ to pay a night nurse instead of a crib. I am SO not joking about this.

It’s more because you are going to be so sore to walk 6 blocks would be uncomfortable and exposing your baby to a lot

You can totally do this. While I got a car home (it was 15 blocks for me), I pushed my daughter in the stroller to the pediatrician 7 blocks away the day after being released from the hospital. Not sure if it’s relevant, but I had a C-section.

You probably can, after my second baby, a c section, I took my three year old to an amusement park. It just depends how you feel.

I’m not from NY BUTTT I did not listen to my husband and tried walking in the snow/ice after my C-section and fell on my fresh incision….I encourage you to walk if you feel well enough but for the love of all things holy please don’t do it on snow and ice!!

Chicago mom who didn’t have a car when my kids were little. If you can walk the 6 blocks TO the hospital, barring any complications, you could TOTALLY walk it. You will likely need to change your “diaper” when you get home right away. (Activity causes the gushers, sorry.) But if walking everywhere is your norm, it will stay your norm.

My friend is a NYC nurse and she said people walk home allllll the time. It’s pretty common, people don’t have cars and getting a car service/taxi isn’t feasible or practical for a lot of people.

My sister in law walked several blocks home in Brooklyn and up four flights of stairs after having a c-section TWICE. Me? I’d be calling the Uber Black 😅

Everyone is different. I was shocked by how completely normal I felt right after delivery. Don’t listen to all of the horror stories! I would be. Ore concerned about the weather in February! 🥶😂

Being a new mom is the quickest learning curve ever! One thing I didn’t know is how much you’ll sweat after giving birth. I’d wake up in the middle of the night soaked from hormones being crazy. But it’s such a short time so soak it in and enjoy every second! They grow up so freaking fast.
