So you're required to have a car?

  The standard process--can't speak to having a newborn--but it you've been under sedation is that someone will pick you up in a car from the hospital. Now, if you're at an urban hospital and happen to live just down the street might someone walking to the hospital to pick you up be OK? Maybe. Can't speak to what the rules literally say. ADDED: An of course someone picking you up may rent or borrow a car, take a taxi, or otherwise arrange for transportation.

    Where I live, there are taxis.

      So in that case, you would put the carseat in the taxi.

        You both make a fair point! :-) It hadn't crossed my mind that you still need a car-seat, even if you ride a taxi.

          So: how are you supposed to move children around, if you don't own or can't drive a car? You can't be expected to carry a car-seat around with you, as well as having kids in tow. I had a car when I was raising kids; I've never confronted this problem.

      Your previous comment asked incredulously whether its mandatory to have a car when you have a baby, since the poster before you commented on mandatory car seat. Now your current comment about taxis may enable you to put the whole puzzle together :)
