Go for the ceremeny. To me the ceremony is the most important part of the day. Your Mom said she's uncomfortable. I would not leave my baby all day if my mother was nervous taking care of DC. No way. If they get mad well that is just ridiculous.

Since it's family, I'd go. I'm not sure what your mom is worried will happen, but something could happen whether you're there or not - but chances are everything will be fine.
I would probably not stay the entire time, but I'd definitely make an appearance. Being a mommy is a big, important job - but you're entitle to your own life, too!

You're going to get differeing opinions here - but IMO, you don't skip your husband's brother's wedding unless you're IN the hospital delivering the baby - you just don't
2 weeks after delivery, unless there were major complications, while you (the general 'you') might not "feel up to " getting dressed and going to a wedding .....give me a break! It's immediate family - you suck it up and you get dressed and you go.
In your immediate situation I think you should put the baby in the infant carrier, and at the very least, attend the ceremony.
No one will touch her, or make a big scene over her if you are discreet. Sit in the back of the church - Your family will know you were there to see them get married, and your Mom won't have to stress about watching a 2 week old all day.
Because, honestly, I wouldn't be comfortable at all leaving my kids w/ someone who wasn't comfortable themselves - KWIM?
ITA with this.

I would go to the ceremony. I wouldn't bring the baby because as silly as it is, it might be perceived as stealing the spotlight from the bride.
