To go away 2.5 weeks before I'm due to give birth

DH and I have been invited to stay with my sister and her DH over the Easter weekend in April. We live in London and they're based on the edge of a town that's between 1.5 and 2 hours drive from us.

My BIL has offered to collect us from our house on the bank holiday Friday and drive us back to London on the Monday, as he'll be going that way anyway.

However, I'm 28 weeks pregnant with my first (due 30th April) and am wondering if it's a good idea to go away so close to the due date?

There is a hospital in my sister's town but I've never actually been there, and my sister/BIL have said they totally understand if I can't make it because of the pregnancy.

I probably sound really precious, but am new to this pregnancy lark and don't know how I'll be feeling by that stage or what's best!

Any advice?

I wouldn't have wanted to go anywhere at that stage of either of my pregnancies! I was uncomfortable, not sleeping and antisocial.
