Anonymised responses were recorded between 18th June 2020 and December 31st 2020 for women who gave birth to their most recent baby between 2017 and December 2020 in the UK and the Netherlands. The survey was accessible on the BBB survey website (https://www.babiesbornbetter.org/surveyportal) and was disseminated by researchers, maternity care organisations, service-user organisations, hospitals and midwifery practices through social media from June till September 2020. Responses from women who gave birth in the UK and the NL were collected, but the survey was translated and available in 24 languages, so women could complete the survey in their preferred language. Survey captures demographics such as age, parity, self-determined standard of life and clinical factors such as type of birth and problems during pregnancy. Women are asked to rate their overall birth experience.
