8. Going home before labour starts

Before you go home, the staff will give you the name and telephone number of a contact at the hospital. You can contact staff at any time if you have any questions or concerns. They will also tell you when to come back to the hospital and where to go. It is important that, as far as possible, you do not travel home alone. Shock and distress can affect people’s judgement and ability to concentrate. It is especially important that you do not drive.
