Posting here for traffic. DD is 7 months old. I have 2 appointments today (10am & 3pm - both therapy for traumatic birth and PND). I asked PIL last week if they would babysit and they agreed. Realised yesterday that we hadn't set a time and text MIL but realised I've had no response. They are not early risers usually and normally rock up at around 11ish. They have watched DD before including at 9am by arrangement. They're keen to do this and to help when I go back to work.
But, I only realised when I woke up today then I have had no confirmation of time so my options are a) call their landline early no doubt waking them to check they'll be here on time. b) ask my dad to babysit and take DD to him (he doesn't drive) whilst trying to contact PIL, c) not go to first apt if they dont turn up in time (will likely lose my therapy place), d) see if I can take DD to first apt. What would you do? Would it be unreasonable to call them early knowing I'll wake them? I guess this all has to start happening anyway as a trial run from when I'm back to work but still dreading all the inevitable drama especially on a difficult day.
