I went last year when I was 15 weeks and I didn’t stay in the public camping areas. It was tough, the sun is relentless when it’s hot and there are very little places to get shade, luckily there was a place at the campsite I was at that meant I could get some shade. This was all when I wasn’t heavily pregnant and also didn’t have a toddler to run around after. I’ve also been to Glastonbury for many years so I knew what to expect. I can’t imagine her having a good time because all the walking alone with her pgp is enough to make it a miserable experience.
Oh, the sun is relentless. Not underplaying that. One year a single cloud drifted overhead (think it was 2017?) and the entire crowd erupted in cheers of relief. There are quiet shady areas for toddlers to use (that I was selfishly happy to avail of myself last time when with my own), she will have access to them.
I also worry a bit about her getting there to queue at 6AM for gates at 8AM. I’ve queued overnight for family camping from about midnight (had my partner follow in with the babies after me later that day so they didn’t have to queue) and it still filled up SO quickly we only just nabbed a spot. She might end up near Woodsies which is away from the kids area and a bit out, she’ll be lucky to find somewhere in Cockmill by then.
It’s amazing with kids, they do have the best time… I just couldn’t imagine basically doing it on my own, all that hard work, while pregnant, with PGP, while my partner was out doing got knows what and stumbling back into the tent whenever he felt like it.
