Cinema with 5yo, 7yo and an 8 week old baby?

[SoupDragon]

Is this feasible with one adult? DSs want to see Ice Age 2 and I am thinking of using it as a bribe for good behaviour on the School Shoe Shopping Trip. Used to do a soft play place where I could lounge around on a sofa and drink coffeebut it's shut. Bah!

Sorry...just read all the thread and see you didn't. Never mind.... you can always try it next time.

what about the boys going to the loo? Would the youngest need you and baby to go with him?

joelalie, would use a pouch sling, not a buggy. If DS2 needed the toilet, I would take him with the baby for my own peace of mind - it's a huge cinema and he might get lost! If DS1 needed to go we'd all have to go because I wouldn't leave DS2 in the cinema alone.

I'll let you know when I've been brave enough :)

myself and dh took 3yo and 9week old to cinema last weekend. Having been once, i would definately be confident enough to go without dh. dd slept and bf and never made a peep. ds however gave a loud running commentary of what he thought to the film (wallace & grommitt - wererabbitt). i.e. 'it's scary i want to go home' 'you're right mummy, it is funny'... Luckily the family in front of us laughed at him as much as the film
