Would you bring your partner to 1st pregnancy doctor appointment if it's just a blood test, urine test, and Pap smear? (Note, I am embarrassingly terrified of needles/blood work)

Question

pregnancy doctor appointment if it's just a blood test, urine test, and Pap smear? (Note, I am embarrassingly terrified of needles/blood work)" />

Answer

If he wants to go, why not? I think it's absolutely adorable when fathers want to be involved and I don't think the mother should take that away from them. My husband wanted to come to even my most monotonous appointments

Answer

my husband has come to all the u/s , and we have had a LOT due to us being high risk due to assisted fertility. but as far as the OB appointments and the bloodwork appointments, i didnt see it as necessary. you are literally only there for a few minutes anyway.

Answer

I'm 32 weeks and my husband has been to every single appointment

Answer

Mine comes to all mine with me.  His choice.  I don't ask him to but it's his child as well so it's his choice on being there.  Not going to lie, I love that he's so involved with our baby

Answer

My SO has only gone to the first two ultrasounds. It's not worth the time off work for him to go to the other appointments as he has to take the entire day off every time and he's the only one working. If that weren't the case and he wanted to go I'd definitely welcome his presence at every appointment.

Answer

I said no because we both thought it was pointless. If he wants to though, I wouldn't say no.

Answer

Only when there's gonna be an ultrasound or something concerning

Answer

I didn't have him come to "appointments" where I didn't even see the Dr, which sounds like what you're describing.

Answer

My appointments are scheduled early in the morning so my husband always comes. I tell him be doesn't need to come but he always insists! This is our 2nd baby and he came to every single appointment with first baby too. Also when I spend a week in the hospital this pregnancy, he never left my side. ❤️

Answer

My husband has come to all of my appointments so far. They're at 8:00 am and he goes to work at 9:00 so since he doesn't have to miss any work, it's no biggie. If he had to miss work, he might not come to all of them.
