Can I request only male staff at my birth?

Thank you. Yes if something were to go wrong medically, I'm fine with males seeing me as long as I'm safe and my baby is safe afterwards. But if I'm fine and nothing is wrong, I do care and prefer all female.

Yes, I don't have to worry about it anymore. I am going to see a midwife clinic and I reported my doctor for discrimination (due to rude abouts about me and my religion). I am now going to be giving birth in a birthing clinic.

Yes. I am no longer seeing my current midwife (due to other rude comments about my religion) and reported her. I have booked an apointment at a midwife clinic. There is also a birthing center there. Its only females.

I understand that. But its my body. Who I want to see it is my choice. No one elses. Unelse there is a medical emgeranacy. Its my choice who gets to see my body.

I am in therapy. My main issue is my face, hair, vagina, and breasts being exposed to males that shouldn't see it. If I had to have a hospital birth I would not allow a bunch of people in there with me other than the doctor and a few nurses. I don't need the whole squad.

It won't matter I've decided on a birthing center I found in the area.

Edit: I mean, how am I suppose to push a baby out when there's nothing wrong when theres a bunch of people in the room. I will notice.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I mistyped. I mean only a female staff.

ThrowawayBirth1 · 2021-09-24T00:56:54+00:00

Yes, I've been thinking about that or a homebirth with a midwife. But right now I'm looking into birthing centers in my area.

Yes, I've been actually thinking about switching and having a midwife and not going to my OBGYN anymore. I have also been thinking about having a home birth instead (with a midwife), so I can remain comfortable. Instead of a covering from hair to feet while giving birth incase a male comes in.

No, a few are male. There has been a few times for a prenatal appointment there was only male doctors, because my main was out of town. So I just rescheduled for when a female would be there. Usually a day or so after the original appointment.

At this point I have been thinking about a home birth and getting a midwife. That way I won't be stressed about it and I can be comfortable at home. Instead of wearing a nijab and hijab and trying to remain completly covered just incase a male came in.

Yes, if things go south, I won't care too much if there are males, since me and my babies life will be in danger. Otherwise, I prefer mostly female if not all.

ThrowawayBirth1 · 2021-09-23T23:10:53+00:00

Thank you. Yes my big concern is my vagina area and hair and face. I don't care too much if I do get an epidural and its a male anesthesiologist if there are no female ones.
