First scan

Hello everyone, Can I take my toddler to my first scan appointment, it says no children allowed . He is 18 months old and his dad also wants to be there to listen to baby heart rate …. Do you know if it is possible for them to allow them

We weren't allowed 😔 my husband had to wait outside with our little girl x

No. I had very bad news at a 12 week scan with my first pregnancy, and there's a very good reason why they don't allow kids - on the off chance something is really wrong they don't want children in there. Sorry! Most private scan places allow children, so that's an option afterwards.

They won’t allow at all. They’re super strict. It’s annoying tho, because my husband has to miss out on these scans, and we have no one to look after our toddler

i think they are strict on no children allowed. but at first scans i don’t think they listen to babys HR usually only something they do in private scans. would you be able to book a private scan as you usually can take children in with you? or at a MW app where they use a doppler just ask if you can record a video. this is usually from 16 weeks app

Children aren’t even allowed in the waiting room for scans (at least at my hospital). My husband hasn’t been able to accompany me for any of my NHS scans so we had a few private ones with Ultrasound direct where we could take our toddler too.

Thank you all

My hubby had to wait outside with toddler
