[quote=Anonymous]I would put off deciding as long as possible and see how you feel closer to the events. There’s clearly no universal right or wrong answer, just whatever feels right to you. Totally fine to attend the closer one and skip international, or vice versa. It sounds like you have great friends who I am sure would understand either way. By 8 months you may be more than ready for a break, so don’t preemptively bow out now!

Don’t worry so much about your husband! It will be great for him to bond with the babies, and maybe he could fly in his mom or another family member to help if it’s really stressful.

I am a SAHM and never had a huge milk supply, so I didn’t do much pumping or bottle feeding.  So none of my kids ever really took a bottle very well, and it was stressful for whoever stayed home and stressful for me because I spent time away worried about my babies! But that was definitely an issue specific to me, plenty of my friends left their babies for long weekends much earlier than 8 months with zero issues. I once looked into getting a hotel for DH and my first so that I could run back and feed him once or twice a day, but that would have really brought down my enjoyment and was needlessly complicated, so I just skipped it.
