My partner wasn’t allowed unless it has changed x

My partner wasn't allowed as well

Doubt it as I wasn't allowed anyone to stay after the birth of my son in Glasgow and all my friends had babies in paisley and they weren't allowed either and been told this time no again x

No overnight unless you've had complications that stop you caring for baby

I was allowed my partner with me 24/7 in QEUH and I was in for 4 days, you can swap hospitals at any point in your pregnancy I think so if you want him there with you could ask to change if it’s manageable to get to & from x

Not sure about RAH but I’ve been told my partner is allowed to stay with me in QEUH at all times although just on a chair. Unsure if it’s the same rules as both hospitals are within the GGC health board x

We were put onto a ward with either 4 or 6 beds (can’t remember exactly) and it was only mums and babies. Unsure if you have a private recovery room if it would be an option but we weren’t given the choice on the ward sadly x

so I gave birth in 2022 at the royal in Glasgow (c section) and husband had to leave around 10pm and come back around 9am following day. This time I’ll be a section again at the qeuh, so do you think he’ll be able to stay overnight? It would help so much not having to ring the midwife everytime I need to pick up my baby/feed/change him or just grab something from my bag!

yeah, my midwife said my partner is allowed to stay overnight on a plastic chair and my cousin had her baby in October in QEUH, her husband stayed all 4 nights with her 🥰

Omg that would be amazing I was only in 24 hrs with my first c section but hated him having to go, felt like a pest everytime I needed something simple!

yeah I was allowed in Oct 2024 and that was on induction, labour & recovery ward across 4 days and my friend was the same and she had a section. I wouldn’t have coped without him being there 🥹. They just ask that they don’t come on the bed with you and that you are quiet/respectful of others xx

Just had a baby 8 weeks ago at rah he was allowed in from 9am till 9pm then was asked to leave

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you

If this is your second child are you/have you given your eldest a present “from baby”

If so what did you give them because I am stuckkkkkkk, due next week so really need to get a wriggle on to get sorted 😂
