Birth partners at West Middlesex or Kingston?

[Plotless]

I’m trying to choose between the two and I wondered what people’s experiences had been with birth partners being able/not being able to stay after birth, during Covid. My West Middlesex midwife didn’t give me much information when I asked but just ‘hope it will change’, whereas Kingston midwife said that partners have been able to stay for a while - any personal experience? I’m aware of the national guidance but it seems a bit hit and miss. Thank you!

Best thing to do would be to give them a call

My sister gave birth at Kingston last week and her partner was allowed to stay as long as he wanted as they ended up remaining in their room after birth instead of going onto the ward (lucky I guess - she was in labour for 3 days 😂).
