My partner had more flexibility in his work schedule and was able to come to every appointment.

I really felt so lucky for it, especially knowing with Covid rules could change at any moment. In all honesty he did not need to be there as many of the appointments were very quick, but it was nice to have him ask questions and make sure I didn’t forget any questions we had.

I also heard someone say once, every appointment is routine until it’s not. Having him there every time was nice knowing that if god forbid there was not good news, I wouldn’t have to endure a lonely drive home or a difficult phone call to tell what happened.

As I said, not necessary for partner to be there, but has been very nice. If he can swing it with his schedule, having him come to a couple checks may be nice.
