Midwife appointment and fiancé

I understand that everybody has watched the same announcement and knows the same information I do but I'm hoping this reaches a NHS worker or something who can give me an informed answer:

Can my partner still come to my midwife appointments?

I have genuinely terrible memory at the moment so he comes to all my appointments to help me remember what they say and what I need to ask them.

The announcement did not clarify that they have to be appointments for yourself, it just said medical appointments...

Get him to help you write a list of questions before you go
Take a pen and paper and write down what she says

You really do not need him to come with you and expose the midwife (and everyone else at the hospital/surgery) to 2 people’s germs rather than 1.

There really isn't any need for him to be there. My dh only came to the scans with ds and won't even be at scans this time round.
They mostly take your blood pressure and urine and that's it.
Just write things down as a pp said.
