Should SIL watch DD2?

DD1 has gymnastics.  MIL usually watches DD2 but is having a work GTG tonight.  I asked SIL to watch her instead.  DD2 only took a 1 hour nap and is grouchy.  I need to take her in an hour.  Should I still take her?

DD is BF.  She is very attached to me and can cry so hard she pukes (like for DH) especially when I am not with her.  I guess I am worried about that....  however DD's cousins will most likely distract her if she is there (and I can get a break to watch DD1 instead of deal with either!).

  • Will you be close enough that you could leave to go pick her up if she gets hysterical?  DS used to be like that while BFing and I hated having to leave him because I was afraid of how he'd behave.

  • Not really.  It is about 10-15 minutes.  I would hate to pull DD1 from gymnastics because DD2 needs me.  I have been trying to leave her more and more now that she is getting older.
