This seriously is a 'First World problem'.

Considering how hugely complex and difficult a child birth is, and considering that there are professional doctors and trained nurses available for free, the complaint about the cost of a private room because what is given for free was 'not so nice', is, to my mind, seriously taking things for granted.

You read my post backwards. I wasn't complaining about the cost of the private room, I was marveling at how cheap it was!
