[quote=Anonymous]I'm about to start my first IVF cycle and I am unable to find anyone to take care of my toddler during my monitoring appointments.  My husband has to be at work at 6 am and can't take off the morning unfortunately (he does shift work and has to be there for the entire shift starting at 6 am).  I'm a SAHM and we have no local family.  I have a few SAHM friends I may possibly be able to call but they all have young kids too and they'd have to bring them and be here super early and I'm not sure it's going to work out (none of these SAHM friends live anywhere near me).  They also are always late to things so I don't know if I can really count on them to be here on time so I can get to my appointment on time.  I can't bring my toddler (2 years old) to the appointments, he is very loud, doesn't sit still and wouldn't do well in that type of setting.

We don't have a babysitter and I have no idea how I'm going to arrange childcare.  Most of my friends work full-time and use daycare.

I have gone on care.com and sittercity before and have not been able to find anyone for these early morning hours.

What should I do?  I have already postponed my IVF cycle twice due to childcare issues.[/quote]
