You wrote you don't know why it makes you feel uncomfortable, it could be a number of things, but I believe you're being spoken to. The problem with most of us is we don't listen.

Don't know if this is any good advice, but I know you'll do what you can feel comfortable with.
It's good advice, I think I'll do that - there's a small shopping center near there home, I can do a little window shopping after the baptism then go back to the house later on. Thanks everyone - I think I needed someone else to tell me it was ok not to attend. The first time felt different because the ceremonies were on 2 seperate days.
