“I felt belittled and ridiculed for being in pain”: An online survey of Autistic people's experience of care for pregnancy loss (perinatal loss) in the United Kingdom✰

Autistic people from the UK identified significant Disability-related access issues with perinatal loss care in addition to issues reported by a general population. UK Perinatal loss services need urgent investment to be able to provide person-centred care to all. Staff supporting perinatal loss should receive neurodiversity-affirming Autism training and be aware that many Autistic people experiencing perinatal loss may not have or share a diagnosis.
