[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand the severity of this pandemic. I do. But I am absolutely crushed my husband can’t come with me to my first ultrasound appointment. I want and need him there for support (the thought of going alone makes me so anxious) and I find it so unfair that he’s not allowed to come, considering this baby is just as much his as it is mine. He is also super depressed about this “rule.”

Anyone else upset by this? Has anyone found a workaround that will allow husbands to at least attend the ultrasound portion of the appointment? I don’t see how him being there poses any more of a risk than ME being there (considering we live together...if he’s got it, I likely do too)!

What can we do?! Anything? Legally-does he have rights to have an active role in our baby’s prenatal care?

I am sad for you but your being "anxious" is not a reason to expose all the ultrasound staff, and the pregnant people they are exposed to, to another person during a pandemic.

This protects you and your baby too, from the other dozens of husbands they probably would typically see in a week.

And OMG "legally".   SMDH.  I hope you pull the "legally" card and they tell you to take your business elsewhere.  We live in a society where people can't even be forced to bake cakes for groups they don't like and you think you can force someone to give you your ultrasound while you entitled-ly insist on bringing along a guest?  You people are unbelieveable.[/quote]
