Hello! As the title says , what do you think it will be like to give birth in feb with all this Covid etc

Hi, I would guess it'll be quite similar to as it is now. Partner will be allowed in during labour but visiting will be restricted afterwards.

Yehh id guess similar to now too. My hospital started letting partners into 20 week scans just before “lockdown 2” and my midwife said they probably shouldn’t have in hindsight of rising cases but they left it as it was as they didn’t want to cause uproar by changing it back so quickly.

Similar to now, albeit busier.

My midwife has said that they are seeing a third increase on women due between Feb and June next year to normal.

I'm due twins in February via c section - we've been warned it will be no different to now - DH comes in for the c section and 1 hour recovery afterwards and that's it. No visiting hours at all. Next time we'll see him is when we are ready to go home which could be several days. Both babies will most likely require NICU and very worried about how that will be managed given all the restrictions
