I believe answer to qs. 1 is c. As they have asked for the least likely cause. UTI would be the commonest cause (10%) followed by infection. Engorgement of breast is also common in first 2/52 after delivery. DVT remains the leading cause of maternal mortality, although less than 0.5% of women are affected.

Any further comments welcome.
