How big is your baby bump at 5 months? Should i tell most people before the wedding?

I would say that with your height and described stature, you won't show too much at 5 months.

I believe whether or not you would like to share your news with your wedding guests is entirely your call though... personally I wouldn't tell everyone. It really isn't any of their business.

Good luck, and congrats!

I’m an ultrasound tech and perform 20 week scans regularly so I see a lot of pregnancies at that stage, and it’s so true it depends on your body type, I’ve seen women who still have the flattest bellies and others who are showing a lot. But usually for first pregnancy you don’t show as early as a second or third, and as long as you don’t gain a bunch of weight which I’m sure you’ll be conscious of just due to the wedding I would bet you won’t be showing too much, it helps that your tall too!

Congrats! But I don't get why you would consider not saying anything to your family and friends once you're past the first trimester. Isn't the pregnancy a good thing? Why not share your joy with everyone, once you're far enough along that it's appropriate to tell?

View Quoted Comment That makes sense. I am trying to be conscious of my food. Thank you for the advice! I'm sure you see a lot of pregnant bellies. Lol

View Quoted Comment I've told my immediate family and friends, just not cousins, aunts uncles friends of the family. Etc. Some are very conservative

I think it just depends on you and your body. For example my nieces mom is 5'7" super skinny but with all 4 of her kids at 5 months if you didn't know she was pregnant you would just think she had gained a little weight.

Well I think even your most conservative family is going to notice when you have a full term baby just a few months after you get married. If you’re excited about having a baby, don’t put stock in what other people will say/feel. It only matters how you and FH feel.

With that being said, this varies for everyone. Body type can affect when you show but also how your uterus is shaped and it’s angle, where the baby is vs the placenta, how much extra fluid you have, etc. There’s a million variables that not only differ for each person but can also differ between pregnancies. I didn’t show the same during my two pregnancies.

View Quoted Comment Thank you for the advice. And yes I was definitely leaning towards telling everyone at my 12 week mark. I figured it's is what it is at this point. I will still have a good time that's for sure. Lol

Congrats! Do you typically drink? If so, guests may wonder why you aren't having a drink at your own wedding. It may be best to share the news a month or so before the wedding.

View Quoted Comment Thank you! I never been a big drinker. But I'm thinking of just telling people. However my fiance is waiting on his side. We too his mother father, sister brother etc. But not extended. I almost told them recently but he asked me not to yet. I think he thinks it's too early right now. But we will see at 12 weeks

Totally understandable. Once you are closer to the wedding date you will be further along and can feel more comfortable about sharing the news with everyone. Good luck!

It's so different for every woman. Depends on your pelvis shape, height, weight, baby's position etc.

I was noticeably pregnant at 5 months (strangers noticing), but I know ladies that looked barely pregnant at 7 months. There really is no way to tell how you might look.

I would probably tell, since you will be giving birth not to long after the wedding anyway, and folks will probably do the math. I am sure everyone will be thrilled for you!

View Quoted Comment Aw that's very sweet. Thanks you. I probably will ahead

Every woman's body is different, so it's really hard to tell if/how well you'll be showing at 5 months. My first pregnancy I didn't show till 6 1/2 months, my second I had a basketball belly at 4 1/2 months. With this being your first, I would assume it'll be a little later in your pregnancy.
It is also YOUR personal preference to tell who you want. You could also do something cute and sweet and make the announcement at your wedding if you'd like.

TIP: To help with your weight, watch your salt intake. Salt will add water weight and cause bloating ( legs, ankles, thighs ) during pregnancy 😉
Congrats on your new little one!

It really depends on your torso. I have a long torso (I'm 5'6" but my legs are the shorties, not my mid area) and didn't show until 7.5 months but my sister has a short torso area (she's barely over 5 feet tall) and looked like she was pregnant with twins from month 2. lol. Even if you do end up showing, you'll be fine and look beautiful! Other's opinions on it shouldn't matter.

Congrats!!! I found out I was pregnant a week after I bought my wedding dress. I would have been 7 months pregnant when we got married, but unfortunately I was diagnosed with a blighted ovum at 10 weeks and it results in miscarriage. But we tried again and I ended up being 8 weeks 3 days pregnant at our wedding! We hadn’t told H’s mom yet, or officially announced it, but most people figured it out because my breasts were ridiculously huge by that point and barely fit in my dress! No one made any comments about it, and we don’t drink so we didn’t have to worry about that being a giveaway. Also we had to put our honeymoon on hold because my morning sickness was all day and I couldn’t have traveled without being sick. So when people asked I told them we have 2 puppies and I have physical therapy, both of which are true. I’m currently 12 weeks 4 days pregnant and even though I haven’t gained any weight, my body has changed enough so it’s definitely noticeable that I’m pregnant. We actually went ahead and announced our pregnancy a few days after the wedding since we were so excited! And H’s family is conservative but we didn’t care what they thought, because it was going to come out that I was pregnant before the wedding anyway! So I would suggest doing whatever makes you comfortable. If it’s telling people, then don’t worry about hiding your bump! If it’s not telling anyone, just tell people you are a little bloated from your prewedding diet! Here’s a pic of my baby at 8 weeks 5 days though because it’s so cute 😍😍

It varies widely depending on the person. You're not going to be able to judge this based on these replies.

For example, I did not look pregnant at all when I was 5 months, but my two friends looked very noticably pregnant at 5 months. This is not something WW can answer for you.

Definitely depends. At 5 months I had a tiny bump! I'm about 5"8, my bump was tiny my entire pregnancy though! I don't think there's a real way to guess it.

Eventually everyone is going to know you were pregnant at your wedding, there's no way around it. I personally would rather just tell everyone ahead of time than risk people suspecting it and whispering about it behind my back at my wedding. Unfortunately people who are going to judge are going to judge, I'd just get it over with and not be self conscious at my wedding.
