Wedding Nerves

We are going to a wedding of a family friend tomorrow. No children will be attending, so my parents and sister will be watching her. I have tons of milk pumped, so I planned on drinking. Pre-pregnancy I would consider myself a pretty frequent drinker, and I was super excited for my first drink after she was born. But I couldn't finish a drink because I would be too worried about her needing to eat before the two hours. I feel like a crazy person. I was so looking forward to this wedding, but I'm already feeling guilty. I'm going to go home and feed her between the wedding and reception, but I feel like I am going to want to go home right away. I wish I could go, have fun, have a few drinks, and be carefree for a few hours. I'm just going to worry instead. It's crazy how becoming a mother just changes your life completely. Not in a bad way of course. Before I would have been all about the open bar, now I'm all about taking a nice family photo before and loving on her when I come home!

Re: Wedding Nerves
This exactly!
I am going to a wedding tonight that my DH is in and am feeling the same way. I have bottles ready for her so am allowing myself 1 drink during cocktail hour and 1 during dinner. Before her, I would be "getting my drink on" LOL
I feel bad and am so happy for the bride and groom but I have anxiety about being away that long. Last night was the rehearsal dinner and I was only out 2 hours. After about 1 hour I was missing her and wanting to come home!
I guess we grew up, huh?
I'm in a wedding in 2 weeks with DH an ds#1....
I don't want to go at all
~after 34 cycles we finally got our 2nd little bundle of joy~

I will probably do this once I get home and then just give her a bottle of what I have frozen. I'm hoping when I get there I'll be fine and excited to have fun!
