THIRD IN LINE TO THE BRITISH THRONE BORN...GUESS THE PRICE OF THE HOSPITAL BILL

     AS the Duchess of Cambridge gives birth to a bouncing baby boy, the real cost of her time in St Mary's Hospital has been revealed.
  

     The cost of a one night stay on the Lindo Wing is a staggering £6,265 and includes a suite of two rooms, but excludes consultants' fees.
Other costs are also split into the length of antenatal care that a patient may require.
For example, in terms of day case accommodation it will cost £75 for up to one hour. Up to three hours will set the patient back £200 and more than three hours will cost £400.
Antenatal care overnight will come at a total of £900, while a set of five parent education classes cost £350.

     Kate's decision to have the royal baby in a private hospital has certainly divided Britain as 37 per cent of the British public think that she should be having her firstborn on the National Health Service, believing it would send a powerful symbol if the new third in line to the throne was a child of the NHS, according to the ICM poll for independent think tank British Future.However, a bigger proportion of the public, 43 per cent, support the Duchess's decision to have her baby privately, not least because she does not need to use the NHS, which is celebrating its 65th anniversary this year....Culled from the express

  jezzzzzzz, that much money paid for giving birth to a single baby, it comes with being royal...money really talks
