One possible option. It may be a little convoluted, but it may be tweakable into something workable. I assume both Stephanie and her mother have cell phones.

When Stephanie goes in to take the exam, she leaves her cell phone with a proctor (or some other mutually agreed-upon person). When baby needs feeding, mother calls Stephanie's cell phone. Proctor gets Stephanie and accompanies her to meet mother at mutually agreed-on place. Baby is handed over, no words exchanged between Stephanie and mother. Stephanie takes baby to private location for feeding.

When baby has finished feeding, reverse the process to return baby to mother.

As to the extra time issue, obviously things have changed since my day. I can't think of any sound reason to grant extra time for ADD and not for breastfeeding.

Fred, that's a good idea and I'm going to keep it in mind as this thing progresses.

ION, I was going to take DH's car in today for recall work. However, the problem that triggered the recall, which makes the car immovable, just happened, so the dealer is going to come get the car. How nice to have somethng work for me for a change. Now we will just see if they can get it out of the garage.

I forgot. I left the bathroom door open when I started the shower. attack of the killer cat. claws and teeth around my ankle.

But what if you were having the baby anyway? Improvise, man. Cheat with the tools at hand.

Yeah, what ita said. I agree that nobody's going to plot to have a baby just so they can cheat on their bar exam, but if you have the baby anyhow ... there are people who could justify writing notes on the baby's back as making up for the study time they lost having the kid, or something, and it's really not the proctor's job to check every crevice of an infant and the diaper bag for cheat sheets.

I agree Stephanie should get extra time to pump, though. That's a physical need.

Many years ago, I was freaking about an exam and very carefully wrote notes in very faint pencil all over my coffee cup.

As it turned out, the process of transcribing the notes actually made me remember the material to the point that I never even glanced at it.

As it turned out, the process of transcribing the notes quickly got out of hand and I missed the exam entirely.

Stephanie, I hope it all gets sorted for you. I absolutely agree they should make some accomodation for a lactating woman. Still, you'll be post-partum, exhausted, and taking the bar exam, and right now you're pre-partum and studying for it. Assess the fight to see if it is worth your zen to fight.

We get coyotes for neighbors here in LA. They just go walking down the streets at night. A few weeks ago, when I went to fetch Trudy from ND's place, and transport her off to LAX in the dawn hours, as I drove down the street, I saw one just standing in the street at the bottom of the hill, soaked in rain, looking like he was trying to catch a bus downtown or something.

I think he had a job interview he had to get to.

If it was Assistant Manager of Killing and Eating Deer On The East Coast, I hope he got it.

I think he had an interview.

This one is missing a front leg. It looked well healed though, and the remaining front leg is now pratically in the middle. It didn't seem to slow him down. I know we've had a coyote problem in our town for quite a few years, but still, seeing it right in my yard was a little more excitement than I was bargaining for. Also, I still think it was a wolf. I know it wasn't a wolf. But my brain is still yelling WOLF. In fact, so is my mouth. Every few minutes, I just sort of yell out, "WOLF!" Ben is cracking up. Chris is ignoring me.
