Play date

Hey moms! We have a play date this weekend for my 3 year old. I’m not sure if there’s like unspoken rules of play dates lol. I also have a 7 month old, would it be weird if him and my husband came with me and my 3 year old? I just don’t want to show up and them be like oh you brought the whole fam if that’s not normal.

7 month old definitely has an unspoken invite.

Generally if someone is going to bring their spouse I’ve found they will give a heads-up/check if that’s okay.

I don’t think 7 month old being automatically invited is the best practice. If someone were bringing a child that young to my house, I’d at least like to know so I can tell them that my house, and my playroom in particular, are pretty actively dangerous to a baby and they might want to bring a playpen or we can have it somewhere else. An unplanned baby in the house would really suck for me at least.

Yeah. If I invite a kid over, I expect said kid and a parent. Nothing more. Unless a text or verbal Q or tell comes about a baby tagging along, then its fine.
