Hospital Length of Stay 48 hours following a vaginal delivery. 96 hours following a cesarean section. When the Stay Begins Delivery in the hospital: at the time of delivery (in the case of multiple births, at the time of the last delivery). Delivery outside the hospital (for example in a birthing center): at the time of hospital admission.
