Confidential birth

Confidential birth is designed to help pregnant people who want to keep their pregnancy a secret. It enables them to give birth anonymously and within a medically safe environment. A counselor from the pregnancy advice center is available to support pregnant people before and after the birth on request. The counselor is legally obliged to maintain confidentiality: nobody will know about the individual’s pregnancy or birth.
