Partners at appointments

[Solly-44]

Just got the call to say our transfer’s going ahead tomorrow (eeeek 😬🤞🥳).

They mentioned that partners aren’t allowed to attend at the moment due to their Covid policy. I don’t mind at all, just wondered if this is still common practice at clinics? For some reason I thought they would be allowed in!

Hey, good luck!! My partner wasn't allowed in back in June which I understood but I had another FET end of last month and was told the same which I was more suprised at. I didn't mind too much though, just wanted to get it done lol xx

[Solly-44 in reply to Trying6years]

Thank you! Haha, yeah I know the feeling xx

Hey lovely,

Yes I had the same when I did my transfer back in August. Hubby was allowed at the initial consultation but wasn’t allowed in for the actual transfer. He was allowed in for my viability scan so I got the impression they were just being strict about the clinical space they use for egg collections and transfers?

Best of luck for tomorrow!x

[Solly-44 in reply to KiboXX]

Thanks love!

Ah I’m glad your hubby got to be there for the viability scan. Yeah I don’t mind this but I’d want someone there for a proper scan! Xx

[KiboXX in reply to Solly-44]

Yeah same! Wasn’t too bothered about the transfer but the scan was a must! The transfer was the only but I had to covid test for as well. I guess a lot of it will depend on the size and layout of the clinic xx

My wife got to be with me for all major appointments like embryo transfer (October this year) and viability scan but not the endo scratch or baseline scan. Wishing you lots of luck! Xx

[Solly-44 in reply to RecipIVF]

Ah glad she got to be there for the big ones! Thank you! Xx

I’ve had a transfer on the 30th Oct and my partner was allowed to come with me, seems like it’s different rules in different hospitals.Best of luck to you xx

[FrancyItaly]

In July my husband came in with me at any appointment/transfer! It doesn’t matter, focus on your transfer! Good luck! ☺️

[Solly-44 in reply to FrancyItaly]

Thanks lovely xx

[Chel91]

Best of luck for your transfer hun! My clinic is allowing partners for everything, so kind of strange how they all have their own rules xx

[Solly-44 in reply to Chel91]

Thank you! Xx

[ForABabyPanda]

Oh no!! I mean my husband has been allowed in so far, but they’ve had to make sure he’s in agreement so far 😂

[Solly-44 in reply to ForABabyPanda]

Haha, good point - he’s only been allowed in to sign consent forms so far so I should have expected it! X

[Picalilli99]

Great news about your transfer tomorrow - best of luck!

Our clinics current policy is partners are allowed for embryo transfer & viability scan but not other appointments. I had to plead with them to let my partner in for our ultrasound last Friday and I’m so glad they let him because receiving that news on my own would have broken me I think xx

[Solly-44 in reply to Picalilli99]

Oh love I am so so sorry. I wish there was something I could do or say to make it better. Sending lots of love xx

[AMJean]

Best of luck for tomorrow! 👍 I had my FET on 2nd Nov and it’s the first time since we started the process that my OH has been allowed in, so a pretty recent change at my clinic I think. Baby dust xx

[Solly-44 in reply to AMJean]

Thank you! Xx

[Faith103]

Best of luck 🤞

I will be joining you next week. I’m having transfer on Tuesday. We will be in the wait together 😱

Hopefully we get our positives 😃 xxx

[Solly-44 in reply to Faith103]

Yikes, here we go again! 😵‍💫😂 Loads of luck to you too, hope you’re little ones doing great xx

[J3nna]

My husband was allowed in, however was in scrubs and masked up and had temp taken on entry to clinic.

Good luck for today xxx

My husband was allowed to be there, but we had a childcare issue so he waited outside in the car with my daughter! I think they try extra hard to relax you given the circumstances. Good luck for today xxx
