Yes they can stay with you (just on a chair) but at least they’re there!

Thank you for asking this question, I also have the same. If it’s a normal delivery still is he allowed to stay overnight?

Only if your in a private room if you go back onto a ward they can’t stay overnight

@Lauren thank you ❤️

yeah they can! also my husband stayed overnight on the ward when i gave birth in october. with my first he had to go home, but apparently that was because of covid rules!

@Thilanka mine could, totally normal delivery!

@Thilanka yes my partner was allowed to stay with me on the mat base ward for both nights I was in x

I seen somewhere about taking a camping bed for your partner just one that can be folded down and I wish I’d seen it before I went in , clever idea surely got to be more comfy than a chair x

Hi yes he can my partner stayed with me xxx

I had a section and my partner wasn’t allowed to stay afterwards, he had to leave when visiting hours were over. Even though I was still out of it after the surgery and had catheter and IV drip still attached. But because I had been moved from recovery to the ward he wasn’t allowed to stay. He then wasn’t allowed back the next day until visiting hours.

Thank you all, seems like mixed responses. I have my 36 wk app tomorrow with my midwife so I'll see what she says x

@Tasha when did you have your baby? I can’t see why they would let some stay and not others , I had my baby in august and it was fine he was never told he had to leave :/ x

I gave birth in Whiston and my partner was not allowed to stay

I had a section three weeks ago in the Womens and mg husband was allowed to stay and we were on a ward. He slept on the chair, only your birth partner is allowed to stay.

I had my baby in September and my husband was allowed to stay. He did only get a chair but it was a recliner and he said it wasn’t too bad! Everyone on the ward had someone staying over so don’t think it makes a difference what type of birth you’ve had x

two years ago i had my section and he wasnt allowed to stay over night 😩 sounds like it may have changed though
