Send us Fan MailPeter waffles on about the state of the NHS and how badly it's letting mothers down.It's simply disgraceful how far behind other countries the UKs health service is when it comes to post-natal care.

Did you know in France women get 10 physio appointments after giving birth?In Germany you get a daily visit from the midwife for 10 days and, in many cases, a midwife will hold exercise classes to help the pelvic floor recover. These are covered by the health insurance.Of course the US is terrible as well, but that's a rather low bar to set.
