Hey Suzie,
With a second baby, North Shore Hospital aims at having you trucked out after 2 days - even if you have a gap of a decade between them like I did. That being said, you can either leave early (like I did) if you would feel more comfortable at home or dig your heels in and stay until you are ready to go. The hospital can't make you pack your bags and turf you to the sidewalk.
For first babies they aim at between three and five days stay. It's a tough one, because staying until breast feeding is established with milk in would be the ideal, but government funding isn't anywhere near health at the moment. Maybe if it was a prison hospital?
