    I would think its very likely they'll have a babes-in-arms session of New Moon. They usually have the popular ones and the girly ones, LOL!
    We have only taken Phoebe once, when she was about your bub's age. We saw Harry Potter and even with all the loudness of the movie, she was quiet as a mouse!
    Do you have a carrier? If so, can I suggest taking bubs in that instead of the stroller? I found if Phoebe started to stir I'd feel it and just bob up and down a bit. Worked a treat! I didn't even need to feed her, but I wish I had've though because after being so close to her for so many hours my boobs were going CRAZY.
    And I would definitely go for an earlier session. Less people for you to worry about offending

    I took DS to the Mum's and Bub's all the time when he was young and I loved being able to get out of the house. The only thing to think about is the noise level in a normal session. Mum's and Bub's is turned down so be prepared that you may find the normal session is just too loud.

    Mum and dad brought my sister along to Harry Potter when she was a few weeks old! She just sat wrapped up on dad's knees and slept all through it - I think mum may have fed her at some point.

    It was fine!

    I took DD to the movies when she was about 13 weeks to see Juno (I was watching the movie, not her!) and didn't have a prob, they just said if she gets noisy then I'd have to walk out until she settled, but wasn't ans issue, she just slept through most of it. I did make it a day time so there wasn't many people at all in there.

    Also some bigger towns (I saw the movie in SYD) have like a mothers group thing where everyone can bring their children/ babies, so check that out if you're really worried.

    there are def mums and bubs sessions and they woujld def show this movie as i think it will be popular...
    i go to these often with DS2 and it is great.
    I have also gone to some 'normal' sessions with him - if you go to the 1st one on a weekday (not on opening day) there will be less people so it should be ok.
    enjoy!
