The LGBT Foundation recommend the NHS provide staff with "best practice guidance about inclusive language across perinatal services at a national level" to ensure consistency for trans and non-binary pregnant people.To his nearly 200,000 followers on Instagram, Raven Smith speaks in what could be termed “gay internet”: dry, lusty, disillusioned, pictures of celebrities make up much of his feed. Always ask people directly about the language that is appropriate to describe them, their bodies, and their experiences. "It is not possible to guess the language that someone might use to describe themselves based on how they look or sound, or who they are in a relationship with. "Others are completely comfortable with the term breastfeeding. "For example, some trans and non-binary people use the terms chest feeding or body feeding, rather than breastfeeding.

"As such there should be no requirement for trans and non-binary birth parents to be treated differently, and instead there should be a focus on choice and individualised care." "Some may not wish to be singled out, or to be at risk of being identified as trans by others.
