only round the corner. she can go on the bed. its allowed when training.and yeah the logistics of getting her in the unit is something that needs working on ill admit
She’s just had your child ffs treat her to a taxi and a posh one at that

this has got to be a wind up post surely,i am not married and don’t have kids[one of the lucky ones,depending on how you look at it ]but if I was I would not dream of picking my missus up in a unit if she has given birth
Don’t do it. I picked up my wife from Hull maternity hospital in my unit as the maternity hospital was just across the road from Hull docks where I ran out of and my car was in Beverley so it seemed like a good idea at the time. As mentioned it did involve some rather undigified shoving up the steps. He was premature so wasn’t coming home with us.
My son is now 21 years old and my wife still tells people that I picked her up in the truck when he was born. I still get the disapproving looks of disbelief from those who she tells the tale to. Get a taxi, its not worth a lifetime of grief.
Illegal. Get another kind of horse power one pulling a wee trap and take her home in style. Good luck with the baby a precious gift to have
What a great thing to do illegal or not just do it and good luck 
Take a flat bed trailer and straps. Maybe with a grab of some description and strap her on.

Sorry conor, Hull docks is NOT "just across the road "
I think you need to negotiate with Mrs Chainmailguy beforehand. Then when she says no, accept defeat graciously on the grounds that she won’t be the only one needing picking up from hospital if you don’t.
You wouldn’t get a unit anywhere near our local hospital and definitely not in the allocated multi-storey.
I supposed you could always take her to the underground loading bays amongst the SRCL and Brakes wagons.
Then again - perhaps not.

Very true, but Beverley is not exactly that close either…
At least the bed will be warm if your good lady doesn’t see the funny side,might be case of 1 out of hospital and 1 in lol 
.
Does sound kind of cool tho lol
she thinks its funny and i can get a unit right to the door of the maternity unit there. she must be a bit tapped to even humour me at this point. saying that she is beyond help being with me in the first place. only thing she has bad to say against it is how embarrased she would be climbing in with one of those backless gowns on
im afraid its not a wind up at all. im deadly serious. just the kind of guy i am. 
You may go too far with the unit idea.
My misses complains about getting on the back of my motorbike (she is short and the bike is quite tall). I think if I asked her to get in a unit after dropping the equivalent of a watermelon through her front bottom she might poke my eye balls out.
She may sound keen but lets look at reality. Her ‘internals’ may not be as strong as they were before, picture yourself hoiking her up the steps to the cab and suddenly she needs to go the loo…and is wearing a backless gown…
Good luck whatever you decide.
Just do it and don’t tell anyone. Some folks motto is don’t ask and you don’t get …mine is don’t ask and just do 
Be a great wee story to tell your kid when its older.
Don’t forget,
‘What goes up, must come down’
It’s easy enough climbing up into the cab, but a different story when you’ve got to turn around & reverse down the steps, especially with an open wound to contend with.
& don’t forget little Chainmailguy, she could always pass him out the window Rugby Ball Style & you could catch him, as long as he’s not still covered in Slippery Birthing Fluid. [emoji6]
Good Luck with Everything.
You could always knock up a seat to fit on the fifth wheel, put the MRS on that, makes it easier than the steps

Reason not to breed number 64. That’s put me right off my dinner and water melon pudding.

+1. Go for it fella, you and your missus sound like you enjoy the ridiculous, and to that I say good luck mate. There are waaaay too many timid Timothy’s in this world nowadays who’ll voice disapproval at anything that doesn’t conform to their view of “normal”. For “normal” I read “boring and bland”. You’re here for a good time, not a long time. Enjoy.
I can arrange a rigid to pick her up and the little one, tail lift pick up then shrink wrapped on a pallet, I will need her gross and net weight to calculate the cost, volume in cubic
feet is required for goods in transit insurance.
Seeing its kerb side delivery, we will have to drop her off on the kerb.Sign here and motor
Off asap for the next drop.
Seriously why is this even a question??
Baby in the baby seat properly secured to the the passenger seat, missus strapped down on the catwalk with a couple of ratchet straps, job done!
