[quote=Anonymous]I commented on the earlier thread about this. It gives me anxiety to read a laundry list of things I have to worry about beyond trying to stay healthy during pregnancy and then taking care of a newborn. Ridiculous. now we have to worry that we might die anyway due to hospital error or inadequate resources. A lot of these women developed a complication after leaving the hospital. Women need continuous checkups in the days and weeks after delivery. Other developed countries don't let new moms go without checkups for 6 weeks after giving birth. In the U.S, healthcare policy is left up to the states, which do whatever they want. Look at Texas, where the maternal mortality rate is much higher than any other state. It's shameful. We need federal policy to force better maternal medical care across the board.[/quote]
