How are you managing all your pregnancy appointments with a toddler?

Tell them you don’t have a choice with your toddler. It’s ridiculous that they wouldn’t let you. I bring both my toddlers. Every time I go my husband comes sometimes and then during longer appointments he might keep them at home and just take the day off but majority of the time I bring them with me. Maybe just go and bring them and see what happens. I’ve gone before where they don’t want kids but I think it’s more like older kids./ they can’t really tell you not to. Just make sure your child isn’t crazy or like super disruptive. Bring toys and snacks to help them

We also don’t have a village, but my guy works overnights so no matter what time the appointment is in the AM him and our toddler both come and he keeps her occupied there’s days where he just gets a nap before work which can be 10-14hr shifts. Which is also HIS CHOICE because he usually wants to take her to the park after being cooped up in the Drs office.

I brought my wee boy with me as in the same boat, they never say anything. Only the 19week one they asked for my partner to stay outside with him till she did a scan and measurements and monitor the baby closely with no distractions and then brought them both in and did another scan so my partner could see baby too

I didn't bring her to the 12 and 20 week scans and just went in without my partner, but also had a lot of other scans at hospital and I just brought her in with me because I didn't really have another choice and they were all lovely with her to be fair, no one said anything at all! Xxx

Can you find a different US clinic that allows your kids there. That’s wild. I had my eldest in all my apts.
