Brides with Young Children

Are you hiring a babysitter to watch over your child? I have my friend (who happens to babysit our daughter) coming to the church so that if our daughter gets tired or antsy she can take her outside with a 'fun bag'. However she and her bf are coming to the reception as is everyone else I would trust with my daughter so even though everyone will keep on eye on her and make sure shes ok there not going to be changing her diaper lol Should I hire someone to take care of that stuff (diaper changes,making sure she eats, preparing her bottle) I want my family to enjoy themselves and even though we are going to be watching her as her parents I would prefer not to change a poop diaper in my wedding dress lol

On a side note as I was opening my bridal shower gifts I had to get up and chase after my daughter who was going on the other side of the yard where I couldnt see her.....never stop being a mom lol

Do you have any friends that also have young children that you could ask to be acting babysitter? You could phrase it like that would be your wedding gift. You definitely shouldn't be changing poopy diapers in your gown!

My daughter is 2 and a half and I think my mom will be changing her diaper if she's not potty trained by then. (I doubt that she will be.) I'm also sure she's not going to stay still for the 40 minutes in church. Someone is going to have to take her outside or something. I think she will be fine at the reception. She will be running around and being with the other kids. She'll be sitting by my parents. I'm sure everyone will be willing to change her diaper and help you out on your wedding day.
