If you are the #Partner of someone who is currently #Pregnant or who has just given #Birth, we would like to hear from you about how COVID-19 might have affected your experiences. Please consider completing our survey: bit.ly/32Q92b8 #COCOONGlobal at @KingsCollegeLon
"Suggesting to children that it is possible to be born in the wrong body is misleading, regressive and potentially very harmful, and it is good that the DfE has clarified that this should not be done." 👏 amp.theguardian.com/education/2020…

Enough is enough. Human rights are being forgotten about and birth trauma and PTSD are on the rise. Pubs, gyms and schools are now open but a person giving birth cannot have their chosen partner with them during an induction or some antenatal services. #butnotmaternity
Before you scroll by because you’re either not pregnant, not likely to be pregnant or don’t feel that this affects you, please understand that this affects ALL of us. We NEED mothers to be ok. Because well mothers = well children, well families, well society ❤️ #butnotmaternity
You can shop at Ikea but you can't have a second birth partner at your baby's birth? @MattHancock @BorisJohnson @CMO_England @NHSuk @HCTNHS @enherts #birthblissdoulas #birthworkersunited #butnotmaternity #doulasupport #birthrights
Birth rights are human rights @MattHancock @BorisJohnson @CMO_England #butnotmaternity #lockedoutofbirth
Rights have been taken away from birthing people and this is simply wrong. Bring back birth partners! @MattHancock @BorisJohnson @CMO_England @NHSuk @broomfieldnhs @MSEHospitals @MEHTexperience #ButNotMaternity #LockedOutOfBirth #ProtectMyBirthBubble
⭐#BUTNOTMATERNITY⭐ . During the Covid-19 pandemic, restrictions of partners attending scans and appointments, as well as the time allowed into labour wards for partners and additional support staff have now come… instagram.com/p/CEldEIvnd6Q/…
Enough is enough. Women's health matters. Families are being traumatised by limiting partner support in maternity care. Time for change. @MattHancock @BorisJohnson @CMO_England @NHS #butnotmaternity #LockedOutOfBirth #ProtectMyBirthBubble #BirthRightsDuringCovid #CovidBirthRights
What a brilliant day @LetsTalkBirth19. Lovely to see Doula UK members @jojodoula @KatiBYIL @CTGoodBirth @SaimaKara and lots more of you I didn't manage to snap! #LetsTalkBirth19 #womenforwomen #doulauk #birthdoula #postnataldoula
"What is positive birth? When we talk to people it's not about how they gave birth but how they felt during and after birth. Are they where they want to be? Were they informed? Were they listened to and treated with respect? Were they empowered?" @millihill #letstalkbirth19
"A healthy baby is not all that matters - the birthing family's experience, feelings and memories also matter" @millihill @birthpositive #letstalkbirth19
The amazing @millihill founder of @birthpositive shares the backstory of her latest book "Give Birth like a Feminist" - she wants to start the conversation about Birth as a feminist issue and share the idea that women giving birth have power and choice 💪🏽 #letstalkbirth19
"With continuity of care, people are much more likely to share what's going on for them and you're more likely to spot differences in their health/wellness" @SideBySideDoula #letstalkbirth19
Listening to @MarkWilliamsFMH talking about fathers experiences of #PND at #letstalkbirth19. So important that we know about this and acknowledge what partners go through.
Inspiring talk by Doula @_MarsLord: "5x more black women are dying in pregnancy than white women" - change starts with us. What racial biases do we have? How can we acknowledge and overcome this? #letstalkbirth19
The birth spacesuit from the 70s!!! Supposed to improve the intelligence of the baby! @LetsTalkBirth19 #letstalkbirth19
