In a country like Japan, where it seems that there is much worry about the falling birth-rate, you'd think they'd make it easier for a woman to give birth. But when you have ten or twenty hospitals turning women away when they arrive to give birth or have complications around their pregnancies, it's no wonder that fewer women want to have children. In an article in the Japan times, there is a second case of hospitals turning pregnant women away having no beds or too many surgeries on the day that these women show up. In this article, the woman miscarried although they are not sure if it was why she was going to the hospital or by the accident the ambulance got into on the way to the next hospital.

You'd think they'd be more attentive to the future generation because of the current worries about low birth-rates, non?
