My mum works on a maternity ward and we were discussing sections and I was saying that IMO going home 3 days after a section is too soon ( i have had 3). I was saying I thought it should be 4 minimum, and my mum said that the NHS actually now only pay for 2 days worth of care for someone who has had a section. Obviously they don't kick you out after 2 days if you still need to be there but I was shocked, that is disgusting. It is major surgery afterall.
