Castle Street Hospital used to be a horrible place for expectant mothers. Not sure if anything has changed now. But women I know who went there to have babies said they were mocked, verbally abused and shamed by nurses when they shout in pain during contractions.

It is not the new and first in the world matter. In the western countries like Germany etc., it has been practiced since long years.
