How long is a baby covered on its mothers insurance after birth?

Is there a law requiring that a baby be covered on its mothers insurance after birth for some amout of time? Like 72 hours or until you leave the hospital the first time? My husband and I are wanting to put our baby on her own plan instead of adding her to mine because it is so much cheaper. I know that my insurance has to add her if I apply within 30 days of her birth & if there are complications, that is what we will do. But if there aren’t, will my insurance cover us until we leave the hospital?
