Pregnant bride

Rochelle, on June 26, 2017 at 12:01 AM Posted in Planning 0 4

Hi everyone, I'm looking for some advice. Me and my fiancé just found out we are expecting our 2nd child (it is very early I can only be about 3weeks along) we are both a little worried tho because we don't want to tell anyone until we are further along. I have my bachelorette party the first weekend of august and we are getting married the 2nd of September. My friends and family like to party and I don't know any other way to hide the pregnancy other then letting my bridesmaids no...any ideas?? Also I'm very worried about fitting into my dress just cause I heard you start showing earlier with the 2nd pregnancy. I do not want to stress and although this pregnancy is very much wanted it just bad timing and I don't know what to do

    Welcome to WW!!

    First off, congrats!!

    Secondly, I'd at least tell your bridesmaids. That way nothing will get too out of hand and no worries about you not having fun.

    As for your dress, it is possible to show sooner but each pregnancy is different. For instance with my son I started showing around 13/14 weeks. Super early! Don't stress and enjoy the planning and pregnancy!

    I can see why you wouldn't want to tell anyone. You could always do your bachelorette party as a lowkey getaway with no partying and I wouldn't think anything of a bride not drinking. Def tell your BMs though!

    Well, congrats are in order for you, OP.

    I totally understand you wanting to keep this early news to yourselves, but this isn't any old August we're talking about. It's the month of your BP, and your most honored attendant, someone you should be able to trust with this announcement, your MOH, should be able to be relied upon to hear t he news and recalibrate accordingly. If she needs to say you haven't been feeling well, but don't want to talk it about it, so be it. You might be dealing with nausea, a lack of energy, a need to get more sleep than usual, and you definitely don't want to consume alcohol.

    Are you okay with them scaling back the celebration? I don't know what they're planning, but would dinner and a comedy club be good?

    As for showing -- yes, that's true. I didn't show with my daughter for six months. With my second baby, my son, I was showing by four months.

    Now, take care of yourself. Enjoy your parties and your wedding -- and no drinking (ummm...you might have to share the news with your seamstress, but she won't tell anyone).
