Title Home-Birthing and Free-Birthing in the era of COVID-19 Media name/outlet BMJ Sexual & Reproductive Health Blog Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 2/04/20 Description For many pregnant people[1] due to give birth soon there is considerable anxiety about how COVID-19 will impact birthing plans. Those who have planned for home-births are concerned that their plans will be jeopardised by the announcements from some NHS Trusts that they are suspending home-birthing services. Private home-birth services are now ‘receiving an unprecedented number of calls from women seeking reassurance, antenatal care, postnatal care and homebirths’1 as those previously not considering home-birth reassess their options because of concern about attending hospitals.
