my aunt has just died and it is her funeral on tuesday. I'm leaving the 2 ds's at home with the in laws. dd is only 8 weeks old and as I will have to travel down and stay over night I'm not happy about leaving her for that long! I've just spoken to my mum as my sd just told me she's organising childcare on my behalf, apparently there's someone in the village with young kids who might look after dd. obviously I'm not happy with this as I was imagining my grandparents neighbours or someone I (or my mother) knew! I talked to my mum and said I might bring dd to the service in a sling and sit towards the back in case she starts crying. I thought this would be the best compromise but apparently I have to sit at the front with the family. would it be acceptable to sit at the back? would it cause offense? I'm so confused!

Should dd come to funeral service with me?
