I've heard in North America, they basically take the baby from the mother as soon as it's born and put it in a "baby room" with all the other babies. If that's true, no wonder there's so many mix-ups. Where I live, the baby stays with the mum when possible
Used to be, maybe. I think they've changed.
They have changed.
American, here. Both my kids stayed in my wife’s hospital room the entire time, from the time they were born to the time we left the hospital.
Even medical exams happened right there in the room. My kids were NOT born in the same hospital - they were born hundreds of miles apart.
