[quote=Anonymous]This really depends on your friendship. If she's truly one of your best friends, I wouldn't miss it. Celebrating milestones is what you do for friends. I went to my future SIL's bachelorette weekend party when DC #3 was around 8 weeks old. When I found out her own sister wouldn't attend because the sister said it was too tough to leave her kids, I felt I had to go. I was tired and it was a total pain to pump, but it was also fun and worth the inconvenience because it meant a lot to my SIL. That's really what you have to decide - is your friend worth the inconvenience? That's the question because having kids doesn't make it impossible. It's an excuse. The truth is it's easier to skip pretty much everything when your kids are that age. You have to make the effort or your default is to say no to everything. PS (your DH will be fine with both kids. Would you need grandparents to come help you in the same situation?)[/quote]
