Allow partners to pregnancy scans and be their during the birthing process
To lift the restrictions so partners can also attend their baby scans and antenatal appointments. Also be their prior to labour starting in hospital
Because it doesn't help the mental state of the mother during this time why any woman would want to go through labour on their own or even encounter their partner been forced out of hospital and not allowed back in so they miss their babies arrival disgusting. But it's acceptable to sit in pubs and go to gyms outrageous!!!
Something needs to be done. We need to be heard. As I pregnant woman myself I would not like it for my partner to miss every single appointment of his child
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about who can attend scans are a matter for the NHS, not the UK Government or House of Commons.
On 5 June, the NHS’s suspension of hospital visiting was lifted. This means that visiting is now subject to local discretion by trusts and other NHS bodies. You should check with your maternity team and sonography unit for their policy on visitors attending antenatal appointments, including scans.
