We are getting married in June and have a 5 month old who is going to be our pretty little flower girl :o) We want another baby, and when our baby starts eating solids as well as breastfeeding in the next few months, it will become more likely that I will become pregnant thus meaning I could potentially be a couple of months pregnant when we get married. I was just wondering what people consider the pros/cons of this to be? I thought it would be nice as we could maybe announce the happy news at the wedding, but then I could be sick, won't be able to have anything to drink (not too bothered about that bit though)... Has anyone got married whilst pregnant? Would you recommend/discourage it?
Pregnancy and wedding?
I was 12 weeks along with baby #1 (YES IT WAS PLANNED) when we got married. I just waited until the week of the wedding to have my dress fitted (wasn't showing much anyway) Just be prepared for everyone thinking you got married because of the baby though. It really annoyed me when people assumed that is why we got married even though we were planning our wedding and were engaged for a year before the set date. We wanted a baby right away and became pregnant 12 weeks before the set date.
For the people saying "horse before cart (or whatever it is) and wait til you're married...You already have one baby so its not like you're virginal and never slept with the guy. At this point I don't see a reason to wait if you want a baby. Go for it and best of luck hon :)
As for the premarital sex argument...not everyone demands their children not have premarital sex. While the idea is nice lets face it, most people don't. Its more important to instill in your children the notion to save yourself for someone you love.
Reply:get married first.
Reply:I would definately wait until your wedding is over. You don't want to be pregnant at your wedding... what if you have terrible morning sickness or something? Just wait to start trying til after your wedding.... maybe you'll get pregnant on your wedding night! That would be fun. Plus, then you will have to get a maternity dress.... you want to be able to get the kind of dress you want, right?? Just wait a little longer... plus, do you really want your kids that close together?
Reply:My cousin was like 8 months pregnant when she got married. It was a little wedding with only family and very close friends. She was more emotional than a usual bride is. But I would recommend waiting until after. Because you might be sick and that would just be awful. Bu that's just my opinion. Good Luck to you and you fiance'.
Reply:why don't you just try for a honeymoon baby that way, like you said, no chance of sickness, etc at your wedding. Enjoy your wedding day. it only happens once (most of the time!!). Start trying as soon as the wedding is over. My girlfriend did. She got married in July, went to Hawaii for their honeymoon and came home with another package....bun in the oven! Congratulations and good luck!!
Reply:I was 3 months pregrant when I got married I wasen't sick but couldn't drink which didn't really bother me but I was so tired by the end of the day there wasen't much of a wedding night.
Reply:I would wait. Get pregnant on your honeymoon! That would be even more special!!! Good luck and congrats on the wedding!
Reply:I was pregnant on my wedding day and while I had been sick as a dog every day and night, on my wedding day I had not a bit of nausea! God was smiling down:-) I think it's perfectly fine! You might not want a late night wedding though b/c you could get tired easily. And make sure they have some nice virgin cocktails for you so you can toast with something fun. Oh and definitely find someone to babysit for your wedding night! Take a honeymoon if you can. You'll be glad you did before your life gets even more hectic. Leaving 2 for a trip is much harder than 1.
Reply:Cart before horse.
Reply:Get marride first, enjoy your day to the fullest, then think about pregnacy good luck
Reply:I would wait if you can, June isn't that far away. My sister in law was pregnant with their second child when they got married and she was uncomfortable, it ended up being really hot that day. I don't know how soon you are getting your wedding dress but it could end up not fitting correctly if you gain a few extra pounds one month. Not to mention a wedding is a big ordeal so with that and a 5 month old you will probably have your plate full for the next couple of months. I would just have fun trying on the honeymoon. Good Luck!
Reply:Obviously I would've NEVER have planned it like that!!!
But it sounds like none of that matters to you -which is fine, to everyone his own.
So if you're okay with being pregs %26amp; getting married.. GO for it.
I surely would've changed it.
Only because how do I explain to my daughter "you were in my mommies belly" when she sees pics of our wedding then tell her to not have pre marital Sx.. LOL
Reply:Whats the hurry? I'm guessing it might be b/c you want to have babies that are close in age? Honestly, although I've never been in that situation, I think you should just plan one thing at a time! My sister and I are 4 1/2 years apart and could NOT be closer, love her to death. Plus, from what I've heard...planning a wedding can be VERY stressful, let alone planning one with a little one at home and another one on the way! But either way its ultimately your choice sweetie! Hope it all works out well : )
Reply:I was 3 months pregnant on my wedding day, and we still had a wonderful wedding and an even more beautiful honeymoon. We certainly had a lot to celebrate. Our pregnancy was not planned (obviously... we had planned the wedding for a year, and got pregnant 3 months before), but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. We have been together for 8 years, so it's not like we "need time to get to know each other." I can't really see the cons, sometimes it just happens that way. Good luck to you!
Reply:i got married when i was 5 months pregnant with my son. i ended up not being able to wear my wedding dress and had to quickly go out and find the whitest dress i could. we ended up just doing a small wedding as we were planning to get married the follow may but then i would have a 2 month old baby and i said why not just get married and then get renew our vows is future so i can still have my big wedding. - my suggestion, i wish that i could have done a bigger wedding but I'm glad i was married when i had my son!!!
good luck and congrats on everything
Reply:Hi,
My sister got married when she was 8 months pregnant. She enjoyed the day but felt that it would have been better to have waited until baby was born as my nephew who is now 8 looks back at wedding photos and get upset knowing his big brother was there but he wasn't - although she tells him he was inside her tummy!
Also she found she got tired more and that the photographer tried to make her cover up her bum a lot which annoyed her. Also she found that she felt fat and frumpy rather than the blushing beautiful bride!
However as you will most probably be only a few months I am sure it will be fine - you won't be drinking though - you won't if you breast feeding still anyhow and you may feel poorly but be lovely to have first dance and waltz around with a sign saying ... 'JUST MARRIED AND BABY 2 ON WAY' pinned to your dress!
Lx
Reply:Actually my husband and I were trying to get pregnant 3 months before our wedding. We decided to start trying after a pregnancy scare which turned out negative made us realize we wanted a baby.
But we never ended up getting pregnant. We ended up getting a positive 3 months after the wedding. I don't see any problem with it of course. You will get some people on this who will be opinionated completely differently. But I say if its what you two want go for it! Good luck! Congrats on the wedding!
