no, not selfish. i would say try it again but that really seems expensive to me! i use the gym childcare almost everyday because i get up to 2 hours per day included in my membership. at my gym if it isn't included in the membership then it is only $2 per kid. good luck. i hope you get in a good workout. you deserve it!

Jonathan–yes, you described my thoughts exactly! I wish I could find some people to trade off with, but no luck.

Fitness Surfer–so true! I was so stressed afterwards that the 10 minutes was totally negated! Hope you find a new way for yourself too!

It’s not selfish at all. We have a large segment of stay-at-home moms at my training studio and it’s common for them to feel as if, though they absolutely ADORE their children, they abdicated their whole lives whereas their husbands more or less have continued their lives unaltered (their words, not mine). They feel as if they’ve sacrificed their identity. I believe strongly that by taking some time every week to continue to cultivate their individual identity (what some people might call “selfishness”) they are better prepared to take care of the other people in their lives. What’s the solution to the daycare dilemma? Not sure, I’m afraid. Many of my clients are able to afford help. What if a group of women rotated watching the kids so that the others could take some “selfish” time? Would that work?
