What happens to a woman who is sent back to a regional community after a traumatic birth (having had to travel hundreds of km's to birth), where there is NO maternal health care reasonably available to that woman (and there are many women in this situation).

Would it not be better for that woman to birth via c/s if she wants? And wouldn't there be a higher incidence of this type of c/s in those areas?

?
I dont see how sending her back after a "traumatic" birth is worse than sending her home after a C/section, if she has no care afterwards????

And I cant see how if you had to travel 100kms away, a c/section would be better if there is no medical need? A vaginal birth where your up immediatly and can leave asap, or major surgery? I would of thought it a no-brainer....
