Some advice on this.
I have close relatives wedding in a few weeks and also a 3 month old baby.
Culturally it’s looked down if children aren’t present at weddings. It’s also an opportunity to meet family you don’t regularly see and there are the great grandparents who will be pretty disappointed if I don’t take the baby.
My MIL is in town and she’s very very good with the baby. Follows our schedule to the T and baby is in safe and secure hands with her. She’s insisting to leave baby with her.
Wedding is 3 hours away and will be an all day event. 1pm till 10.
If I take the baby, will have to take all his equipment for bottles plus carrycot pushchair etc but family will be happy. I am not even sure where to sterilise his equipment as he needs feeding every 3 hoursish.
if I don’t we will have a much more relaxing time but family will probably openly express dissatisfaction. What do you think?
