Midwives have been told not to use gendered phrases including 'breastfeeding' 'breastmilk' and 'vaginal birth' to make trans and non-binary people more comfortable during pregnancy
Midwives have been told not to use gendered phrases including "breast feeding" and "vaginal birth".Midwives have been told not to use gendered phrases including "breastfeeding" and "vaginal birth" to ensure trans and non-binary pregnant people feel supported, a Government report has said.
The report by the LGBT Foundation was commissioned by the Government to explore the disparities in maternity services for those who do not identify as female. It also suggests trans and non-binary people "benefit greatly" from being offered private rooms instead of being treated in women's labour wards.
"Some staff even treated me as if I wasn't there to experience actual childbirth, and instead were just waiting for the child to arrive. It didn't feel like an inclusive situation - it was all about the child, rather than my experiences/how I was feeling." Whilst 28 per cent of respondents said they had not been treated with 'dignity and respect' during both labour and birth.
