Baby shower at 36 weeks
My mom is throwing me a baby shower at 36 weeks and 4 days. The baby shower is 5 hours away in another state. My doctor does not recommend I go but said she cannot tell me not to go so I'm stuck between to go or not?
It is on October 20th coming up in 2 weeks. What are your thoughts? I know I should've have thought about this earlier but didn't realize how late 36 weeks is since this is my first pregnancy. I told my mom to cancel but she said she cannot uninvite people who are excited to see me and shower me. She is also super excited and happy to throw me this party since she never had a party for me. The last party she had for me was 24 years ago and when I turned one so this is a big deal for her.
The issue is that my grandpa is mad at my husband and thinks I got "knocked up." My mom said my husband should not go because my granpda will be mean to him and cause drama. I want to completely avoid going for a few reasons.
1) 36 weeks is late in pregnancy to travel 5 hours back and forth
2) my grandpa and some family members are very mean and will cause a scene in front of my husband
