    Personally I don't have a problem with it. When I was going through my appointments before I fell pregnant there were often women with children there. I actually found it inspiring if that makes sense as it showed me that it can work!

    I will be in the same boat if we go back for number 2.

    GL! Hope it is a short road to getting bubs # 2.

    I didn't mind at all either.

    There were often kiddies about when I went for appointments and like Janie - I found it sort of inspiring and evidence that sometimes it really did work.

    There was one woman who I seemed to be cycling with one time who threw a huge tantrum though and demanded that she not be made wait with "those revolting children". Once she was ushered into a room to wait privately the mother and I had a little giggle about how she must be getting a special designer baby rather than an average ordinary revolting one.

    Oh Muppity that is priceless - I wonder if she has discovered the joys of motherhood yet (warts and all)?

    I think it's fine. DS has been to our clinic a few times and I've seen others with young children also.

    ETA - Mupp!
