Had a baby (c-section) 19 days ago, should I go to friends wedding this weekend?

I originally RSVP'd yes to my friends wedding but she said she would completely understand if I decided I couldn't make it because I just had a baby. I'm nervous to leave my baby, but my brother said he would baby sit and he has 2 kids of his own so I know he can handle it. But also, I had a c-section and my incision has split open a little bit and is oozing and my doctor told me to take it easy and just rest and relax as much as possible, so I'm not sure if going to a wedding would be too much right now. If I go, I would only go for a little while, but the wedding is an hour away, so I have an automatic 2 hours driving there and back. What would you do, go to the wedding or no?

    Skip it.

    I would say yes if you were not having incision issues, but that AND four hours in the car? Too much! Too soon!!!!

    Call your friend straight away--let her know that you cannot attend and would love to, but your body isn't cooperating. That way she can use your seat for someone else--maybe that cousin who drifted into town at the last minute! Send her a brilliant gift with a nice note, and get together after things have settled down for all of you.

    Congratulations on the birth of your child!

    I don't think I would go due to the travel. Even tho you're just sitting in the car, that adds 2 hours that you're away from the baby, plus getting in and out of the car could hurt your stitches even more. Make sure to send your friend a generous gift to make up for the meals she's already paid for, but tell her asap you can't attend.

    I know you have a care provider available and your surgery was a few weeks ago, however, you probably should refrain from attending a formal occasion at this time. Since the wound is open a bit and has a discharge the best place to remain is at home and resting. Stay home and just wish your friend the best from the phone.

    I wouldn't go. It is just too soon, having in mind that you delivered by C-section, and that section itself is not healing properly.Take it easy, there will be other opportunities to visit and celebrate with those friends (or relatives) that are geting married now, once you fully recuperate.
