2 Maternity Action information sheet Rights at work for fathers and partners 2012
Can I take time off to attend
antenatal appointments with my
spouse/partner?
Fathers and partners do not have a legal
right to paid time off work to accompany
their spouse/partner to antenatal
appointments as this only applies to
pregnant women. However, as a matter of
good practice the government encourages
all employers to allow expectant fathers
and partners to attend antenatal
appointments without loss of pay. See the
Department for Business, Innovation and
Skills’ leaflet Fathers-to-be and antenatal
appointments: a good practice guide.
You should discuss with your employer
which antenatal appointments you wish to
attend, for example, you may only wish to
attend scans or you may need to attend
more appointments if there are particular
concerns or tests. If your employer does
not provide paid leave, you could ask if
you can work at home for part of the day
or make up the time later. Alternatively,
you could take paid annual leave.
found this on a site dont know if it will help much i just copied and pasted it as i dont know if i can post the site on here x

"I'm gonna go pink to x
In some places they refuse to tell people that flavour of the baby (  ) due to rises in abortion etc on cultural grounds "
my first scan was carried out at 33weeks and that was a growth chart, they couldnt tell me the sex of my child at that point as the baby was too big, despite not seeing male bits n bobs it wasnt a given that my baby was a girl.
was only at my 36wk scan (2nd growth) that i was told i was having a girl as she was 'flashing her hamburger to the world' lol
loved the terminoligy used |

PINK OR BLUE?"
Man, what a mean fisted boss he must have. I'd have told him where to shove it tbh. These are experiences you'll never to experience again, but I guess with a baby on the way he can't put himself out of work.
Good luck with the scan. |

It is policy in Luton not to tell the sex of the baby unless you've had an amniocentesis. They certainly won't tell you the sex on a routine scan. |
