[quote=Anonymous]I do feel like I miss a lot of work.  I have a flexible job, and they like me, but I feel really guilty about it.
Here are some things I do -- if it's therapy where I don't need to be there, I often let the nanny take them.  Some of the offices have toys in the waiting rooms for siblings to play with (this is how one of my kids decided what to ask Santa for...); otherwise let them bring an ipad Uno, or books or DVD player or something.  Or I go and try to do work while I sit in the waiting room.  I often work from home on his regular therapy day so I can take him and try to take my work.

I do try to go to the medical appointments where it is necessary to pass on information and obtain information -- I wouldn't trust the nanny for that.

I ended up giving up on some of the specialists that I felt weren't helping and we were just going for endless follow-up appointments (like the automatic -- okay, schedule a follow up in 6-8 weeks and we'll see where we are -- but we were always just in the same place, and it was always hours of waiting in a waiting room to hear that).
