The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about visitors are a matter for the NHS and individual hospitals, not the Government or House of Commons.
With regard to antenatal appointments, scans, and the birth itself, on 5 June 2020, the NHS’s suspension of hospital visiting was lifted. This means that visiting is currently 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.
