It's really dependent on trust you have your baby in. It's worth checking. We had our little girl a week ago and my partner was allowed to stay throughout the whole time we were on labour ward because the rooms are individual and there is no open bays. It is only one person allowed to be there too. Xx

My sister just had her Lo 4 weeks ago, I think she had to be past 4cm to be taken in, her partner was allowed to stay for the birth and for about an hour afterwards then had to leave and I dont think he was allowed back up
