Which appointments does your partner come to?

My husband comes to the initial appointment, all of the ultrasounds and any appointments where I feel like I need him there and if he is free beyond that I'm always happy to have him there. I feel the same way as others have. I want him to share in the experience and be there for the big moments, but I don't want him to take time away from work that would be better spent when the baby gets here. He also came with me to my postpartum appointment after my first and it was so amazing to have him there with me for that! He had questions and concerns that I hadn't thought of because I was you know busy giving birth! When all was said and done I did the work of having the baby but he was the rock and is definitely the record keeper of our birth experience. Now that we're going through this adventure again I'm glad I had him with me at the first postpartum when things were fresh because we have so much more clarity for this time around.
