Hey there,
I have a dilemma. I'm due my first baby on 5th November but my best friend has just told me that she and her boyfriend will be getting married on 10th December... in Devon. Hmmm.
I have enough knowledge of babies to know that long car-journeys can be somewhat difficult. I also know that it will take me a while to get back on my feet after the birth but I've no idea what's realistically achievable.
What do you think? Obviously I want to see my best friend marry her chap and support her through the day (she's always been rather allergic to the icky love stuff) but is a trip from Oxfordshire to Devon achievable with a new baby? Will my husband and I be able to make it through the day with our baby? And if you have a tricky delivery or c-section (although I'm not planning to! ) how long does it take to recover?
Also, if you do think it's possible, what would you wear? It'll be a very small wedding- just 30 people- with the reception at her aunt's house afterwards.

One month old... or possibly less- too early for a trip away?
