I live in a town where my hospital's proper maternity ward has shut down, So all women unless its a straight forward pregnancy and birth have to travel to the next town over to have their babies. But my midwife has told me that If I want to be, I can be moved back to my normal hospital to rest for afew days after the birth. At any time, There is only about 2-3 women there so we will all have our own rooms, We won't be on a ward together.
I was just wondering, If anyone would know, Since we will be in our own room alone, Would my boyfriend be aloud to stay with me, Or would I only get to see him at the set visiting hours which is only about 3 hours a day :(
The idea of being alone and i do mean alone unless i need help from the midwivies because its so quiet in the old building now isn't very appealing to me, and tbh, my boyfriend is quite upset that he might not be able to stay with me and our baby afterwards.
I do live in the UK, Shrewsbury infact if this helps, I've tried looking for more information, But found people both saying yes and no to dad's being aloud to stay in the days/over night after the birth.
I do plan on asking my midwife, but my next appointment isn't for another month. Oh, And this will be my first child, if that makes a difference.
Has anyone got any experience with this problem or could give me some advice, Thanks :3
