Been Invited to a friends for dinner with a bunch of other folk. 1.5hrs away and I can't drink as im pregnant. I'm also really tired.
My husband will go without me but I feel bad and I don't have anything to do staying home. I want to go but I'm tired!
If he goes alone he will stay over and if i go I will drive so I get my own bed at night.

Mumsnet, you decide!

Buy chocolate, stay in, watch The Crown (again)

Nah, fuck that. He can go, chill out and stay over, you get the TV and bed to yourself the whole night. Win win.

Lol Yeh that's where I am at but I do feel bad as it's rare to meet up with these friends. I haven't seen the crown so you've now given me something to do!

3 hours driving when you are tired and pregnant?

And you say you want to go?

I wouldn't go. Tired and driving for 3 hours is not a good combination.

LizzieSiddal · 26/01/2019 15:28

So it’s 1.5 hours driving thee and back? No, I wouldn’t be going if I was tired. Stay at home and relax.

Nah, it's cold.

Get some chocolate, feet up, good box set, cuppa. Sorted!

redcaryellowcar · 26/01/2019 15:29

I vote go, you'll want to go when baby arrives and logistics get even more complex!

gottachangethename1 · 26/01/2019 15:31

An evening to myself, eat what I like, watch whatever I want. Send Dh on his own.

imanoldbattleaxe · 26/01/2019 15:31

Husband drives there, you drive back. If you get too tired, do you have the option of staying over? Take an over night bag just in case!

ChrissyHynde · 26/01/2019 15:37

I came across this yesterday- JOMO Joy Of Missing Out. Don't go and enjoy the sense if doing nothing

OrdinaryGirl · 26/01/2019 16:01

Stay in and enjoy the peace and quiet while you can.

7 votes to 2 in favour of staying in... not sure you needed to poll us.... 😏

Glad you had a good time though.

WaterBird · 27/01/2019 19:06
