Petition Action

Allow partners to be at the scans of their child and Birth

Petition Details

Allow partners into scans and to be there during the entire labour and after birth, allow them to see their children on a screen because some parents haven’t been able to

Additional Information

Fathers of their child are missing out on seeing their baby grow when there’s been allowance of people going to pubs to get intoxicated. I feel like the father should be able to experience this pregnancy and see it all just as much as the mother should. After all, it’s their baby too.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Individual hospitals and clinics, not the UK Government or House of Commons, decide who can attend births, scans and antenatal appointments.

You should check with your maternity team and sonography unit for their policy on who can attend antenatal appointments, including scans.
