I think, but am not sure, that most, if not all, post-natal wards comprise small private rooms in New Zealand. Even so, husbands and partners or any other family members are not expected to spend the night there unless there are serious medical issues with mother, baby or both. Food, although nothing madly exciting, and coffee/tea are usually available. The idea that dad can cuddle up in a not very wide hospital bed with mum, who may have stitches, painful breasts, be achy and will certainly be very tired is really absurd – a mattress on the floor or a comfy chair suffices.
