MOre of a wwyd really but just trying to gague how this would go down or if I should not even consider it.

Family member getting married in two months time when I will be 36 weeks pg.

Wedding is 3.5 hours away so will involve overnight stay. In laws are coming to look after DD for the day. My plan was to then drive back to put her to bed and they've offered to babysit for the evening.

It's just it will be a 30 min drive back, then willl put her to bed, then drive back, by which point it will be a full-on pissed up dancing type thing that I will probably be too knackered to enjoy anyway.

Am wondering if it would be rude to ask the bride if we can just come to the ceremony and dinner then leave before the dicso? I know they are having extra people for the eve so think it would be better to fess up to wanting to do this now so she can invite 2 more for the evening, rather than just skulk off.

Meh. It's all part of the sport and you're all entitled to your wrong opinions.

IMHO preganancy or being old or whatever is besides the point... long as you tell them you can't stay for the evening do, that's fine isn't it?? It's a free country!
