Answer 1

Ok darlin, everythings gonna be fine..First off, congrats! Second, All you need to do is have your dress let out- on top and around the abdomen depending on what style it is...Talk to your doctor to find out about how big you'll be in 5 months and your alterations person and find out what your options are. I would tell your family now! Celebrate the news, and let them know it wont change any plans or cost them a dime more. Its all in the delivery of how you tell them- if you come across like its bad news, then they will follow suit- embrace it and enjoy it! They'll see how happy you are, and wont be able to be mad! Everyone LOVES babies! Even if they are a surprise!

Give her the benefit of the doubt. It's entirely possible that she thought you knew she was pregnant. When you're announcing your pregnancy (much like an engagement) sometimes you forget who you've told in all the excitement. She might be just as upset as you are because when you talk to her you never ask her how the pregnancy is going. When I had my first, my cousin didn't know I was pregnant until she got the baby shower invitation. She thought it was a joke. I thought between my parents, sisters, cousins and aunts, she would have heard. Apparently not. It happens. She was under no obligation to tell you that she was pregnant when she ordered the dress. Since she knew she wouldn't be pregnant at the wedding it really shouldn't be a concern. I used to sell bridesmaid dresses and we ran into this once in a while. After the bride left the store, one bridesmaid would sneak back in and say, "I'm pregnant but I haven't told anyone yet. What do I do?" We'd ask the appropriate questions, and get a dress ordered. Since it was early in her pregnancy when she ordered the dress, she probably wasn't ready to tell anyone about it just yet in case things didn't work out. More than likely, she ordered the appropriate size. When it comes to pregnant bridesmaids and new moms, most seamstresses will reccommend waiting until the very last possible minute to alter the dress in order to be sure that everything will fit as well as possible. I would definitely talk to this bridesmaid about the miscommunication. Like I said, she might be wondering why you're showing no interest in the baby when everyone else is so excited.

i personally did not even show at 5 months. your dress if it is fitted will not fit because even if you dont show you get generalized swelling and thickening of the waist by 5 months. if you are expecting you must eat right ect ect. i cant tell ya what to do but i will tell you this: in the old days there was a saying : after the wedding the second child takes 9 months but the first child can come anytime. that means that in the old days people who were expecting when they married never told and just had a very premature baby. and everyone pretended the bride was not expecting a baby at her wedding. it is still a bit tacky to see an 8 month pg bride, lets face it. but you wont be showing too much if at all at that point. if it was my daughter i would perhaps. not want her to let it be known until after the honeymoon. thats just me. for you, i would if i were you talk to your mother. and perhaps not make any announcements for a while to the other family. christmas is weeks away, ect, now may not be the time,

Answer 5

Move your wedding up, and you shouldn't fear the family you're about to become a part of. Their son is the father of your baby, so it isn't as if you did this on your own. Your colors might have to change to go with the seasons, but that shouldn't be a problem if your bridesmaids' havent bought their dresses yet. If so, see if they can be exchanged for another color. See if the caterers and venue is available a couple months into the future instead of five. You shouldn't be showing too much in two months, so your dress should work fine. If it's designed for warm weather, you could always add a shaw, or something like that.

Answer 6

Congratulations on the baby and wedding!! Wow! You will have a lot on your plate!! :-) At 5 months you should be showing a bit, so you can either have the dress altered or pick something different. They actually have really cute wedding dresses for expectant mothers that can downplay the belly for the wedding! I havent seen one yet that I didnt think was beautiful! I would keep the wedding on! Its a different time now a days, and I think its cute that baby gets to be a guest at mommy and daddys wedding :-) I think his family will be just as happy also. Grandbabies are always a good thing! Its your special day so it should be exactly how you want it to be! Good luck! And congrats again!

Answer 7

That is a tough one Hun. You are definitely going to be showing at 5 months. The dress may or may not fit, depends on how much room they have to let it out.

The way I see it, you have three choices.

1. Go ahead with the wedding as it
2. Move the wedding up
3. Postpone the wedding until after the baby comes

Talk with your boy and see what the two of you can come up with. Best of luck!

Answer 8

Why would you cancel your wedding, at 5 months you will probably hardly show. Hopefully you haven't already ordered your dress and can change the size, I might order it an extra size or two big. So you can't have any alcohol at your wedding, have the caterer serve you sparkling cider instead and noone needs to know, or tell everyone, be excited, and go on with your plans, it is probably too late to cancel and get any of your money back. Congatulations by the way.

Answer 9

Well, you are not the only person who needs to tell BOTH sets of parents, please - Your Fiance was there at the time of conception - and he needs to step up to the plate and be the husband/father he is now.

Otherwise, reconsider marrying him.

You have several options that the whole family can discuss once the preggers thing has been announced.

1. Go ahead and proceed as planned - but buy a different dress that shows you at your most beautiful.

2. Reschedule the wedding - either earlier or later.

3. Small very private ceremony now - big bash later.

BUT - and this is really important - you did not get yourself pregnant - your fiance had a lot to do with it. He needs to be just as involved NOW - as he was THEN.

Answer 10

You will lose most if not all of your deposit if you cancel your wedding plans now.

Depending on your dress type, and material of the gown, it can possibly be altered or changed to accomodate your pregnant body. The best thing to do, may just be to purchase another dress.

Of course you will have to talk to his family. You didn’t get pregnant alone. This is not something that is hideable, nor should you have to hide it. Have you consulted your fiancee to see how he would like to approach this? Does he prefer to wait until after the baby for the wedding or continue as is? His input alone should help you greatly in deciding whether to continue onward or postpone your event.

Good luck and congratulations on your baby.
