Hospital not allowing mother to leave until... - Page 2

post #21 of 22
Wow, I'm surprised how pushy the hospitals can be about this! My middle dd was born at home and then transferred to the hospital immediately after birth. The hospital registrar wouldn't even tell me who to contact about filing a birth certificate because dd wasn't born in the hospital so it wasn't their job. It literally took three years of calling every city, county, and state government office I could find before I was able to get a birth certificate filed for her! (And then I had to pay for them to check to see if she already had one before they'd let me file it!)

Yes, sioleabha, they will make sure that you will never do that again! Bad Mama! Having her baby at home, and expecting us to provide a birth certificate.

Texas has a long tradition of midwives. I am surprised you had such a time!
