One place NOT to take a baby
My day started EARLY ~ like most of them do. But it was sunny & warm so we dressed & left early for the OB/GYN appointment. I figured we could go somewhere for lunch, then to a park & then the appointment. That way my little companion would sit quietly while I was "busy".
I got on the expressway & he was pitching such a fit that I stopped at the OASIS McDonald's. WOW. There is GOOD PEOPLE watching there! And there is a playplace (if you can call a slide that). So we had some lunch. And got back in the car to go to a nice park along the way.
And my little companion FELL ASLEEP. So there I was an hour & a half until my appointment with a sleeping passenger. So I spent that hour driving around drinking my sweet tea. I drove and listened to music. Heard that song called THE CALL? It was an AWESOME country song... check it out
Then it was time for my appointment & my little companion was rested and WIRED. And nowhere to go but strapped in BOB for an hour & a half while we waited for the Dr. and for the visit.
There is of course no place to stick him in an exam room so my little friend was just there with mommy. But the nurse & dr. talked to him. And he had Cheetos. And he laughed. And I laughed.
So if you are ever in a position where you need to go to the OB.... make the appointment when you are 100% positive you can have help!! But I am done for a year. I can check it off my TO DO LIST before we move!!
And the song really is nice...
