Taking 15mth old to U2 concert?

[Taurean]

We are seeing U2 this Saturday night and I'm yet to find a sitter for DD as those who I'd normally ask are going to the concert too!

We are seated in the stands (it's a Subiaco Oval) with my parents so I'm tempted to just take DD with us and wear her in our Ergo. Am I mental thinking this? She loves her sling, copes well with late nights and evening outings are not new to her. I just don't know that it's really the right thing to do.

I'm considering calling a professional baby sitting agency. That's our last option really which will be costly and also a bit weird - leaving her with someone we've never met before.

Thoughts?

If you are taking her make sure you buy her good quality ear muffs as it will be WAY to loud for her sensitive ears. (personally I would not take her)

Do you know if its even possible to take her?? I would hate you to get there and be turned away.

Hope you enjoy show

I wouldn't. What about the noise factor?

[Taurean]

Yeah, they're my other concerns - the noise (would get her ear muffs though) and if she's actually allowed.

I should have sent my parents on the opposite night to us!

A nanny/babysitter might not be as exxy as you think, have you checked out the rates?

[Taurean]

About to give one a call. A friend from my mothers group uses them and highly recommends her 'regular' sitter. Her DD is quite high maitenance and the sitter never has a problem with her. That makes me feel better. Phoning her now!

Yaaaay! You can't miss out on the concert...
