I am pregnant with my 4th. I fortunatly was able to get back in shape after my son who is 15 months, but I was wondering about when I might show because I would like to keep it underwraps until a wedding in my family is over cause I want all the focus on the bride to be.
When do you usually show? I would guess it would be similar or potentially a little sooner than what is normal for you. Maybe wear something loose fitting?
You tend to show earlier with each pregnancy.
I bet if it is during the first trimester you can get away with it if you just find something that is flattering and not too snug. Beyond that...I don't know. This is my third and was majorly showing by four months but before that I could have pulled it off I think. Just shop around or go through your closet even and find the right thing. Good luck!! but P.S. I had a friend who did not tell us that she was prego at another good friend's wedding and we all wished we would have known bc we are college friends who don't see each other much and would have loved to hug her neck and the bride wished she would have known as well, so if you are showing I really think it will be ok :D
Agreed, you tend to show earlier with each one, and the closer together they are the faster you show. I'm pregnant with number 5, but number 4 is only 8 months old, and at 11 weeks I'm fighting to hide it from people still because I look pregnant.
I think I showed the day I took my pregnancy test with my 4th. You should be able to pull it off with the right outfit though if the wedding isn't too far off.
depends....when did you show with your others? I showed 2 weeks earlier with each pregnancy. (24 weeks witht eh 1st, 22 weeks with the 2nd, 20 with the 3rd, and 18 weeks with the 4th).
That is very kind of you. But even though people will focus on the bride, they will not be able to be around her the entire time. They will enjoy being with the other family members and guests while they have the chance. They will enjoy getting to hear the good news and may feel slighted later to not be allowed in on it. Just be sure to tell the bride first and see how she handles it. If she is self-absorbed, then tell her you will hide it as best you can. If she is excited for you, then she knows that there is enough congratulations and joy to go around.
If a person ends up putting too much focus on you at the wedding then turn the focus back to the bride, excuse yourself and go talk to someone else.
Eat healthy and exercise.
Congratulations!
