S4 Ep11: Research into Autistic Experiences of Maternity Care with Hayley Morgan and Sara King
Season 4 is back!
And in today's episode I speak with Hayley Morgan and Sara King who are chair and vice-chair of the Maternity Austism Research Group (MARG) in the UK.
We talk about their own personal journeys as autistic mothers, their PhD research into autistic experiences of maternity care, and the creation of MARG as a collective of autistic researchers and health professionals.
Today (18th September 2025) marks the launch of MARG's Best Practice Guidelines for supporting Autistic women and birthing people in maternity and obstetric care, which can be found at this link:
