[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of babysitters in the world that come watch kids for an hour or so after parents leave for work before the bus comes for school - this is a very solvable problem that thousands of people in this area figure out for reasons other than IF, there is no reason this family can't also find a solution[/quote]

Respectfully, as a parent who works an inflexible job, childcare has consistently been the most difficult problem for me to solve.  There seen not thousands of people looking for very part time positions early in the a.m..[/quote]

I think the problem is who is watching your child while you are on the chair with the ultrasound up you know where.  This is the more practical issue.  Do you bring DC into the room? Or a nurse or a receptionist are supposed to watch your child?  Many clinics will allow you to bring a child with you, but they will explicitly say that no child can be left without adult supervision at any time. [/quote]

I don't think anyone is asking a nurse or receptionist to watch the kid - just bring the child back to the room in the stroller or, if older, have them sit by themselves with a distraction (toy, book, phone).  And SG will let the kid come in the back entrance at least some offices, so it isn't even an intrusion.  Obviously, this is only if nothing else can be done, but OP's situation sounds pretty unique.  My DH, and probably most DHs, could watch the kid for an hour before the work day starts or you do day care drop off and then monitoring, etc.[/quote]
