Going to a gig at 18 weeks

[Rinnyx]

So DP and I are off to the free rage gig in London on June 6th.

I will be good as 18 weeks (the day after) am I crazy to go?
It starts at about 2pm and goes on til 10.30pm tho we have to get the train from Norwich there and back and I know we wont get back till about 1.30am but I really want to go

so go

it will knacker you, but 18 weeks is during the good bit

enthusiasm should see you through

Of course you're not crazy. You're pregnant, not housebound. How are you feeling now? If you're feeling pretty ok, chances are you'll be feeling pretty ok in a couple of weeks too .

I was still going out and about (to a gig, up to London on the train for meals out,theatre and cinema trips) when 38 weeks.

If this is your first - ENJOY IT WHILE YOU CAN!!! It really does all stop once the baby's here (for a while anyway).

Enjoy! DH is going too.

We're planning on going to a the Prodigy gig in a few weeks - I'll be two days shy of 30 weeks!

Have fun. I went to see Take That when I was about 5m pregnant, also had tickets to see Robbie but was due a week before so had to sell the tickets, was still considering going but it moved from Wembley to Milton Keynes, thought I was pushing my luck - good job really, went into labour that night!

Thanks for the fast replies

fiziwizzle this is my 2nd tho it has been 8 years so good as first time again.

Anyone got any tips? like should I make sure DP takes afew bottles of water and stay clear of any hot dog stands or something? haha

bring a camping stool

We're going to see Cat Stevens when I"ll be about 30 weeks, but I imagine that will be a bit more sedate....

I went to one at 6 months and another two weeks before my due date, although that was the Brits and it was sitting down lol. You'll be knackered but you can sleep on the train.

I am going to a gig next Sunday, will be 19 weeks, but it is seated. However with DS I went to a Robbie Williams gig in Milan, must have been around 20 weeks. Was knackered at the end, but it was great because we managed to get a taxi from the stadium even though there were 1000's of people milling around, because I was pregnant. However, the Italian taxi driver then took it way too far, driving fast, beeping people out of the way, pointing to me and my tummy. Was so embarrassed because my bump was blatantly far too small for me to be in labour.... Anyway, we got back to the hotel I am sure before anyone else got home. Have fun, best to do some great things this summer, really!

(Actually you have reminded me I need to post something related to gigs/festivals!)
