Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Well it happened. Our regular caregiver at day care was not there today AND my husband picked Zoe up after work, so the person covering did not put Zoe's FAB in her bag when she took it off like normally does and my husband didn't check the bag like I normally do. On top of that they said that she slipped out her shoe and they could not get it on properly, so left it off. Not sure what time that was, but it was before noon, which is the normal " take off time " . That is only the second time in 5 months it has come off at school. Zoe is barless tonight. I have a sick feeling in my stomach. On top of that I will be dropping her off late tomorrow because my big one has a dentist appt. I guess I will put it on her when I get there leave it on until evening and give her a couple of hours out. She is normally 8pm until noon for 16 hours/day, or should I go by when they open at 6:30 and put it on her then???

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Oh the stress! I am sure she will be OK for one night but my concern would be they've lost it in the mean time! Ah! I would still go with your original schedule of starting at night so she has the day time free to move and delvelop but you might think of putting it on more like at 6 in the evening if possible so it comes off earlier. We're on a 14 hour schedule right now - 7 pm till 9 a/m. s. Nervous Night Well it happened.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Try not to worry. You have been so diligent and so conscientious! One night out of the bar will not a relapse make. But, having said that, I remember the (few)nights once in a great while when my Zoe was waking every hour for no reason I could fathom and somewhere around 3 am I gave in and took the shoes off for the rest of the night. Oh the guilt! And I didn't even think to try and make up the time during the day! Smart thinking. I have two thoughts: first, either go by at 6:30, pick it up, put it on and have them remove it at 12 noon so she can get back in her routine. (sounds like a big inconvenience, though.) Or, go with your plan of putting it on when you get there and having them leave it on for the rest of the day. Take it off when you get her home, then put it on at 8 pm. (probably the best idea as far as coordination goes). Is she the kind of child who is easily upset if her routine is messed up or does she go with the flow? If she craves routine, then you may want to just wait until 8 pm or a little earlier tomorrow night and start over with the routine... Hope this helps! Joanne W. > Well it happened.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Little Zoe is very flexible, so I think I will put it on when we get there and leave it on until about 3-4, then give her a break.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Well, I'm late in replying - hope you figured everything out. I just wanted to notice a positive in all of this, your day care provider was honest and told you that the shoe came off, and that they were unable to put it back on. I told my day care over and over again, if they forgot, it fell off, anything - just tell me, yes, we'll be frustrated, but wouldn't be angry. Zach's past that stage now (of having to wear it at day care) but I do remember one time I forgot to drop the bar off with him at day care (he was wearing it at naps only) and the day care called me at work asking for it. Gosh, did that ever make me feel great. Anyhoo - I'm sure one night was fine, although I can completely understand your concern - I'd be exactly the same way.
