I'm pregnant with 1st baby. It's DSis birthday & she's having a little party/family gathering at her house at the weekend.
Her DH smokes in their house (they don't have DC) so I don't really want to go!
I know DSis will have had a word with him about going outside to smoke while they have guests round for her party, but I know that the house will smell of cigarette smoke anyway & I don't want to breathe it in!
They've also just got a dog & I'm allergic to dog hair, so was hoping to avoid that too!
I'd feel awful not going to her birthday party, and I don't really know how to broach the subject with her. AIBU if I don't go?
I could just make an excuse for not going & then take her out somewhere the week after to make it up to her, but I don't really want to lie.
And I feel like this will be an ongoing issue now, as I'm definitely not going to want to take my baby there once he/she is born. How will I explain that I never want to go round? Should I just be honest - I can't make excuses for the rest of our lives! But feel uncomfortable preaching to them what they should/shouldn't do in their own home, & I don't want to cause problems between DSis and her DH!
