I have a dentist appt today and have nobody to watch my baby.
I have to bring her with me but how is that going to work out? She's 15 months and doesn't walk - she's gonna be crawling out of the room and wrecking the place. Or she's gonna sit in her stroller and cry.

Any tips? Am I the only crazy ima bringing a baby with me to an appt.?

There are no drop off babysitter's in your area?
I don't take a baby with me to the dentist, it's not feasible. I either go on sunday when DH is home or take baby to a babysitter. It's very hard for a dentist to concentrate with a screaming baby on his head.

I’d keep her in the stroller so you know she’s safe. Give her plenty of snacks and toys and hope for the best. Is the appointment near her nap time? Any chance she could nap in the stroller if you walk her around first.

I've had a baby sit in my lap while I was being examined or treated.

Just took my baby with me to the dentist bec I had no other choice. She was not happy when I left her in her stroller ,especially bec when they take xrays she had to be out of the room. I ended up holding her on my lap as the dentist cleaned my teeth and it was not a good situation (she kept trying to grab my face lol)

Can she have a bottle or snacks and a video in the stroller?
