Annoyed at DH AIBU

Me and my husband have a little tradition, we always go to the city's cider and food festival and we always watch our local team together.

For weeks we planned to watch our local team play, go to the beer festival (im pregnant but there's lots of non alcoholic options and it's something we generally enjoy doing together) and then to watch England.

Last week he invites our friends to join without asking me, that's fine they also have a young son so would have made it fun. Turns out that it was only the husband of our friend coming. When it came to our son's dinner time I went back home on my own, which means I'm now watching the football alone with our young son and trying to prep his dinner. I'm 37 weeks pregnant. The original plan was I feed our son then rejoin but as always it takes longer than you plan and DH hadn't mentioned me coming back. DS usually sleeps at 7 so now it's dragged on I might as well just stay home.

I just feel a bit bummed like I've been muscled out of our plans we made together and how it'll be even harder to do our little traditions with 2. AIBU

But surely you were always going to have to come home if you had to put DS to bed?

... or were you expecting/assuming that DH would come home with you as well?

Why did you take your son home to feed him if you were going to go back out again? Or was your DH meant to be going back with you?

Were you taking your son to the beer festival? Where were you planning on watching the England game? If the plan was to feed your son and then rejoin your DH, why didn't you just do that?

Were you planning on taking your son back out originally? Or always bed at 7pm?

Your husband is a Grade 1 plonker. He manipulated your original plan so he could have a night out with his mate. Either he gaslighted you from the start, knowing it would only be his friend and not the wife and child. Or he didn't tell you when they dropped out. I'd be livid.
