If it sticks, this little peanut will be due around August 10th....<br /> We're not telling a whole lot of people yet, but I'm already worried to tell this friend. I'm basically supposed to be the "matron of honor" without actually having the title. Plus, she's very into having equal sides of the bridal party. I'm going to assume that being in the wedding won't really be an option at that point - so I hope she can understand once I decide to tell her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37642 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:27:16 +0000 cyndistar3 37642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I am 18, so I was 15 when I had my daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37605 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 21:17:02 +0000 heffalump 37605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyndistar3: now I'm curious about your age! Although I know it's rude to ask a woman her age. I think I had issues because I didn't work out much do to migraines so I was very out of shape. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37313 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:58:29 +0000 cyndistar3 37313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Well I would have to guess it is because I am still so young lol... Not that I am saying you are old, I am just in fact very young :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37308 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:55:09 +0000 heffalump 37308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyndistar3: wow, that's awesome that you felt so good at the end! I could barely make a lap around petsmart without sitting down. Hope that happens again for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37305 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:43:27 +0000 cyndistar3 37305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tina: no heels for me, I can't wear them at the best of times lol. And I will certainly mention setting up a chair, I am sure you are right about that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37298 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:38:08 +0000 mrs. wagon 37298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a MOH 7 months pregnant and I was fine-- I even wore heels! I loved my maternity bridesmaid dress too. I would say just have them set up a chair near where you are standing, just in case... I'm sure the bride would rather you sat down for a minute or two rather than cause a scene if you start to feel woozy :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37296 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:32:44 +0000 cyndistar3 37296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@owlmom: I am so wearing flats! The ceremony is the one thing I worry about, I hope I can stand in one place long enough... Our pastor has a tendency to talk a lot lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37295 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:30:40 +0000 cyndistar3 37295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Aww thanks :) last time I felt absolutely fine all up until the 12th or so hour of my labor lol... I hope I will have the same energy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37293 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:28:19 +0000 owlmom 37293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of my bridesmaids was very pregnant. We made sure that she had easy access to a chair during the ceremony. I also let everyone choose their own shoes - I'm pretty sure she wore flats :) She looked beautiful, and you will too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37290 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:24:41 +0000 heffalump 37290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyndistar3: I'm sure you'll look beautiful! You might not feel it because it's pretty miserable those last couple of weeks ...but I'm sure your friends really appreciate you standing up with them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37288 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:22:40 +0000 cyndistar3 37288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: I am so glad that my friends are super thoughtful, I know they will understand if I end up sitting most of the time lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37284 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:19:29 +0000 LuLu Mom 37284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two of my bridesmaids were pregnant (however not as far along) and I just told them to make sure they paid attention to themselves, if they were hungry to eat &amp; sit down if needed. Just remember to think of yourself &amp; your baby, your friends will understand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37282 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:17:44 +0000 cyndistar3 37282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I just hope I can manage the whole glowing thing for at least the day so I don't ruin her pictures lol.... And we have already talked about there being a chance something happens and they are fine with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37275 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:10:37 +0000 heffalump 37275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I've seen super pregnant bridesmaids and they always look beautiful! I think as long as your friends know that there's a chance you can't make it because you just never know and they're ok with that, it should be fine. And I would request flats, and bring snacks because you always have lots of running around to do and very little food breaks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/in-a-wedding-and-pregnant#post-37266 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:05:04 +0000 cyndistar3 37266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I posted this on weddingbee a while back but figured I would post it here since there are more actual pregnant people/mothers :)</p> <p>Two of my best friends are getting married in June, just over two weeks before my due date actually, and I was wondering if anyone here has been a bridesmaid while super pregnant. </p>
