I was also gobsmacked to learn that the US has DOUBLE the fatality rates of the UK in childbirth! Can you believe it? That's the worst in the developed world! You can read more here.
Right, I'm going back to having a good old mope - s'laters! x

Maternal mortality
What a way to celebrate being 3/4s of the way through my pregnancy, than to turn on the BBC news, only to be confronted by a big story on maternal mortality. Cheerful. However, it has made me realise one thing - they did a live feed to University College Hospital's brand new maternity unit and, if I'm in London, I'm getting in the nearest taxi to there - cost be hanged! The place is AMAZING!
