Mom said women's bodies remain under control of "Victorian" laws after police issued new guidelines, and mom said police could search for sad women for abortion drugs.

Elen Hughes of the Llŷn Peninsula in Gwynedd, whose baby stillbirth calls the plans frightening.

This includes allowing searching the mother's cell phone if the baby dies accidentally.

The National Council of Chiefs of Police (NPCC) said such cases were rarely investigated and only if illegal abortions were suspected, each case was treated with "sensitivity".

But Ms. Hughes lost her son Danial at the age of 37 and a half after she became pregnant, saying if police investigated her while she was still sad, "it's likely my end."

“I can’t imagine that in a woman’s mind and in a family that experiences a loss of a baby, abortion or stillbirth, the police can show up and question or check the threat of a house or phone.

“The fact that they can do this is terrible. Why are Victorian laws still regulating women’s bodies in 2025?

Llinos Eames Jones lost Mari Lois due to complications during her pregnancy in 2000.

She said she was disappointed with police guidelines and the last thing a sad mom needed was to get the police to search their phones and computers.

She has been interacting with the beach since the loss of Mari Lois, who supports a sad family.

“It’s so difficult for a family in this family, I don’t know who made these decisions, but I can tell you one thing they haven’t lost their hearts.

"They don't know what it is to bury babies."

According to the British Medical Journal, six women in the UK have appeared in court in the past two years.

Prior to that, only three convictions for illegal abortion have been reported since the law was introduced in 1861.

Sands CEO Clea Harmer said: "The trauma of infant death and pregnancy loss can last a lifetime.

“Parents who have no parents experience pregnancy or baby loss should not worry about getting the care they need.

“Many parents tell us that infant losses are still challenging and can be talked about openly, further increasing their pain. Recent discussions about police guidance have painfully read many bereavement parents.”

The Royal Academy of Obstetrics and Gynecologist said she was “very shocked by the guidance of the NPCC.”

"In this case, women have compassionate rights to care and respect their dignity and privacy, rather than searching homes, phones, computers and health applications, or being arrested and arrested and interrogated," she added.

UK pregnancy counseling services are provided for abortion, adding that seeing such guidance in black and white is “painful”.

Its chief strategic communications officer Katie Saxon said the guide allows police to “use women’s stalkers and medical history to fight them”, which is “the most obvious sign that women cannot rely on police, the Crown Prosecutor’s Office or the court to protect them”.

Women's Equality Network Wales said women "should not be concerned about already difficult and highly personal choices and criminal investigations during pregnancy".

The NPCC stressed that the legislation is complex and has different scopes across the UK, only if the police are told that the police are suspected of committing crimes, whether an investigation will be conducted.

It added that police are encouraged to prioritize mothers' physical, emotional and psychological needs rather than conducting investigations.

Four police forces in Wales were asked to comment on how the legislation would be applied in their areas.
