I'm nearly 30 weeks pregnant with a baby who has a serious health condition that will need surgery in the first few weeks of life. My MIL is wanting us to visit (to stay in a b&b near them as they really don't have space for us). They live in the middle of nowhere, 2-3 hours drive from the hospital the baby needs to be born in, and with no hospital that can provide the specialist care baby needs any nearer. My first baby was born at 36 weeks. Its about 3.5 hours drive from our house to theirs and we would have our three year old with us. AIBU to not want to go? I feel bad as, though I've said no, she was crying on the phone to DH just now...
If it makes any difference, we drove even further to visit them at other relatives house at Christmas. We've said they are welcome to come here, though health issues for stepFIL make it difficult, though not impossible, for them to travel.
