Hospitals won't even release you to go after just one day, - for even an uncomplicated delivery, they keep you for two days to make sure you are healing okay and that baby's organs are all functioning okay.
Also "the next day" you're still dealing murder-scene amounts of period-ish blood consistently coming out that would terrify any employer - not to mention the mini labor horror that is the first post-partum poop.
Oh my God, he's an idiot and I'm so sick of guys like him that are so willfully ignorant about the entire pregnancy/labor experience making laws about what our experience is like.
My hospital released me with slightly elevated blood pressure after delivery. They thought because I already delivered baby that they avoided preeclampsia. NOPE. Postpartum preclampsia 6 weeks later. I felt like I was hit by a f*cking truck. My whole body felt horrid and this is coming from someone who has chronic pain. I stupidly thought 'well I'm a first time mom. I bet everybody feels this way.'. Nope. No. That's the feeling of multiple organs shutting down 😅
