 Tuesday, June 23, 2009Commuter Mom: The Dentist- Part ITomorrow is the big day, my daughter’s first dentist appointment. The hygienist recommended that we not make a big deal about it, so I haven’t really “talked it up” much; although, I did mention it when Elmo was on TV talking about his teeth, and I did tell her that she was going to the dentist this week and would get to choose a present from the dentist’s “prize closet” if she was a good girl. Here goes nothing.

We are a group of colleagues, friends and working mothers who wanted to find a way to share our experiences as parents with others and to seek the advice of those who have encountered and successfully overcome some of the ordinary and not-so-ordinary challenges of working motherhood. Among ourselves we have 10 children: boys and girls, babies through school-agers, children who are adopted and not-adopted, have special needs and those who don’t, and each of whom is precious in their own right.
As professionals, our experiences range from child care to politics, writing to retail. In the interest of full disclosure, we all work for Bright Horizons, and some of us are beneficiaries of the company’s child care services. But this blog is meant to provide a community of support and discussion for all working mothers (fathers welcome too!), and you need no affiliation with Bright Horizons to be a part of the conversation.
We hope you enjoy and join the dialogue too.

I was pleasantly surprised at how easy my daughter's first appointment was! She actually enjoyed it and as long as you chose a pediatric dentist or one that specializes in family dentistry, it will be a breeze. Our dentist even has a movie screen on the ceiling and she got to watch Nemo. Now, she's so comfortable - just 3 appts. later -they don't even put it on. Good luck!
