    Depends on whether you refer to the animal or the acronym I guess

    You'd think so but strangely not all acronyms get capitalised.

    Hospital staff told to stop using terms 'breastfeeding' and 'breastmilk'


    Hospital told to stop using terms 'breastfeeding' and 'breastmilk' (yahoo.com)

    Midwives at a hospital have been told they can no longer use the term “breastfeeding”.

    It’s part of a new strategy by the UK’s National Health Trust to be more inclusive to trans communities.

    Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals (BSUH) NHS Trust in England is the first to introduce the policy.
    Changes in terminology include no longer referring to “mothers” as a lone word but instead use “mothers or birthing parents”, and referring to “breastfeeding” as “breast or chest-feeding”.

    Breast milk has to be referred to as “chest milk”, “human milk” or “milk from the feeding mother or parent” while “father” has been replaced with “parent” or “co-parent”.
