The new doctors office isn't super strict :/
DS1 has an appointment tomorrow, first time at this office since we just moved. It takes 30-45 minutes to get there depending on traffic, We are not morning people lol I got everything prepared tonight so it'll just be a matter of me getting up and ready then the kids dressed, they normally aren't awake til about an hour after we have to be out of the house. I'm planning on bringing a small breakfast for them because in order to get them fed and ready before we go I'd have to get them up at least an extra 45 minutes earlier (and the day will be miserable enough with them waking an hour earlier than normal.)
My last doctors office didn't really mind kids having small "snacks" like this especially since the wait was usually long... I wish we didn't have to go so early
And to top it off my phone has been turning itself off randomly and our alarm clock is still packed since we haven't needed it... I'm worried about my phone turning off in the middle of the night and not waking up in time...

I am sure they will understand as long as it isnt like oatmeal they can smear all over the place.  We have taken mini meals for dd when she has appointments early or later in day.  I would have went out and bought a cheap wind up clock for alarm waking.

I'm sure they will let you know if they do..But I've never had a problem giving my kids a dry snack at the offices..Hope it all goes smooth as possible for you...

I would find the alarm clock and set it up. Just to make sure I was up in plenty of time. I would make sure the kids clothes were set out the night before. I would plan breakfast as being something light like a banana and yogurt or granola bar maybe a bagel. Something they could eat in the car on the way. I would when setting the alrm give myself plenty of time for traffic, slow moving kids and whatever else. It never hurts to show up early, but you don't want to show up late. Good luck momma!

I couldn't find it, I set my phone it was all I had. And I got everything ready the night before, clothes were laid out, everything but drinks in the car.. my kids aren't old enough to eat in the car, well one of them is but seems to always ends up dropping it if he eats in the car. I grabbed them a cereal bar and cheerios. They don't seem interested in eating though.
I managed to get here and find parking 20 minutes early, even though I had no idea where I was going lol. Then it took my another 10 minutes to find and get to the right desk >.< def miss my small quiet little doctors office.
