Really wish these Drs were more understanding and accommodating to working mother's. I can't take off 3 days in a row to sit in this office for 5 hours just to meet with you for 10 minutes. I realize this is for the well-being of my child, but I'm the only income we have, I need to go to work too...

Preach! I had a very similar problem. I started calling the clinic ahead of time to find out if they were running behind So I wasted a little less time in the waiting room.

@leowifey @annarizzo123 It kills me! My appointment yesterday was at 7:45AM and I didn't get out until 1PM. It takes me an hour to get to work, I still went in just because I had a meeting, but they wanted me to come in this morning again and then they have me schedule on the 5th and the 11th. I'm like you need to work with me a little bit. I understand the importance of these appointments, but I can't sit here all day.

@annarizzo123 It gets to me lol and not only do I have to take off for my prenatal appointments but also all of my daughter's appointments and all of my husband's because he doesn't have a car. I missed over a week of work this month!

@annarizzo123, we had that too! Luckily our office was ten minutes away and we rarely wait, but my OB was terrible.
I signed in one day and the lady at the desk never told the doctor I was there, after 45 minutes I was like "excuse me?" She had marked me and another woman as 'no shows' while we were sitting in the office waiting! She then told the nurse that she was just about to call us and ask where we were, oh I would've loved to say "sitting across from you in the waiting room, you idiot?"
