From The Scotsman:
More than one in three new mothers are left alone and worried during labour or shortly after giving birth, a poll found yesterday.
The survey of more than 3,500 women logging onto Netmums.com also found 30 per cent received no antenatal classes through the NHS.
A total of 43 per cent did not have access to a midwife while they were on a postnatal ward while 35 per cent were left alone during labour or just after, at a time when they felt worried.
The UK-wide survey, commissioned by the Royal College of Midwives (RCM), was released on the eve of the union's annual conference in Manchester.
NHS is the National Health Care, Britain's government-run health care agency.
