Don't forget! It's a legal requirement to register your baby's birth and name within 42 days of the birth. Some hospitals have facilities so you can register the birth before you leave, or you can do it at any register office at the county council (or London or Metropolitan borough) offices. For more information read our feature on registering your baby's birth in our Pregnancy and Birth section.
