Ooh I missed the disappearing post!
OP - you don't *have* to take your son to the hospital. Your OH could drop you off, then take your son somewhere (cafe, park) and then come and pick you up later.
As for going in for the scan, then calling your son in to have a look...the NHS runs late enough as it is without you delaying things so your son can have a look at a scan he doesn't need to be at! That is inconsiderate of the hospital and other patients.
It is clear that you intend to take your son to the hospital AND to take him into the scan so I don;t understand why you bothered starting this thread.:cool: DFW Nerd Club member 023...DFD 9.2.2007 :cool::heartpuls married 21 6 08 :A Angel babies' birth dates 3.10.08 * 4.3.11 * 11.11.11 * 17.3.12 * 2.7.12 :heart2: My live baby's birth date 22 7 09 :heart2: I'm due another baby at the end of July 2014! :j

Husband and son don't need to go at all. OP says the hospital is only 5 miles away but OH and son have to go because she doesn't drive. But a taxi for that sort of distance would cost between £7 and £10 according to google http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=how+much+would+a+five+mile+taxi+ride+cost&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari which can't be far off what the parking at the hospital would cost for an hour, and OP could presumably make her own way home by public transport afterwards.
If she genuinely wanted to find a way not to take her son to the appointment that is.0 -

Orrrr maybe you can ask one of your sisters to babysit your boy instead? Eh?

Just be a bit more careful next time you re-register, your family was plastered all over here tonight, you were bound to slip up.0 -

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: so Lalaland is also Zoelouise? Who posted very recently that her child was having trouble at school and that his cousin attended the same school. So it is a big fat porkie that she does not know any parents of any children at her child's school, and has no family close by, and therefore has no one who she could drop the child with early in the morning and let them take him on to school.0 -
What a weird thread this has turned into.
IF the original question still stands ... every hospital is different so to find an answer you would have to call them.0 -

I'd post the link to where you said it, if you hadn't deleted every single post you have made on this thread already. Including the charming one, in response to another poster telling you about their experience, about not caring whether there were distraught ladies in the throes of a miscarriage waiting for a scan, who'd rather not have to do so with a 6 year old playing round their feet, which was where any vestige of sympathy I had for you disappeared.0
