WWYD?

My sMIL's father passed away yesterday. He was a great man and it was unexpected. The veiwing is tomorrow(2-4 and 6-8) and the funeral is Wednesday. R and I will be going but my question is what to do with D? Is it ok to bring him to both? should I get my mom to watch him? I imagine he will sleep most/all of the time  BUT it could be the day he decides to change it up on me.

 

WWYD?

Re: WWYD?

  • I'm so sorry for your loss.  I would probably take him since you are breastfeeding, but I wouldn't let anyone hold him just so germs don't get passed to him.  Summer colds are going around my work right now and Parker and I just got over one that last 3 weeks.

  • I agree you should take him. Just try and get an aisle seat in case he's getting fussy. I'm also not very phobic about letting people hold Ella and (knock on wood) she hasn't been sick yet...

  • Thanks Ladies. I'm hoping he just sleeps while we are there (normally what he does when people want to see him). We aren't too phobic either, but we do carry the little bottle of hand sanitizer and don't let people kiss around his face or hands.

    On a happier note - I got another call today! Interview #5 tomorrow (all for different schools) I know I didn't get Jobs # 1-3 but #4 is still a possibility and now #5! My suit will be getting a lot of use in the next 2 days.

  • I agree that taking him would be okay. From my experience, people love a good distraction at a funeral - a baby would be a great other topic of conversation.

    This. Even at my 8-day old godson's funeral, other babies were a blessing, not an upset.

  • I took KR to a funeral when he was four weeks old. He just slept the entire time. I was near the door in case a melt down did happen.  He was really good, and they were really thankful that he was there because it put a lightened mood on things.
