Re: I'm starting to freak out...

have no fear---it's totally normal...
it totally happened to me!!!! i took some time to do absolutely NOTHING wedding related (a week actually) and when i came back to everything i was ok with it all....tell people that you are having a 'no wedding' week and they aren't allowed to talk to you about anything wedding related at all... and stick to it ---go on a vacation for that time if you can (my freak out coincided with easter break and we went to mexico ahahha)...

take deep breaths and remember why you are doing all of this---because of the man you love---all of this other stuff will pass but he's gonna be there forever and you love him very much!!!
that's all that matters----
don't let things stress you out---it's an incredibly happy time in your life---if someone is bothering you tell them (in a nice way )...don't bottle things up---i had to tell people to back off too---they mean well, but they stress us brides out!!!

don't worry about it--take some time off (you have time to spare) and do nothing wedding and you'll feel much better!!

Re: I'm starting to freak out...

It's completely normal to feel like this - wedding planning takes so much time and committment and brain power to concentrate on one thing for so long... ironing out all these little details and worrying about money and hoping everything comes together - but in the end, it is so worth it. You can look around with your husband and feel proud that you did this - you put this together and you will appreciate all the work.

It's hard to spend so much time on something and not see immediate results, but just trust that it is worth the time and it is something you'll always be proud of

Re: I'm starting to freak out...

I know how you feel. Its overwhelming.

Just know that MOST of us are feeling the exact same way..

you'll pull through! Maybe just give yourself a day off and just pamper yourself.

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

WOW... congrats on your big news!!! or

if it were me, i think i would stick with the wedding plans... you've put so much time and work into it already and it might be really hard to find a hall, church, vendors etc. for the new date or time... and/or it might be a lot more moeny to change everything...you could probably do it, but it might not be exactly as you wanted. the only thing you mgiht have to worry about is your dress. however, my SIL got married 5 months pregnant with TWINS... although her dress had to be let out twice, they got it to fit!!!!

I think you can do it!
GOOD LUCK TO YOU and CONGRATS!

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Wow, congrats to you and your FH!!!!! That explains why you've been so tired etc!!!!! You likely have a lot done already for the wedding, so you could just keep the date and everything and do the wedding as planned - some people don't even start showing until 4 or 5 months!

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

I got my dress at David's Bridal so I can exchange it for a bigger size, if need be. Hopefully, it'll all work out.. this is so crazy!!

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

congrats on the unexpected bundle of joy on the way!

stay with your plans---at 4 mos. preggo, you probably will just be developing the baby bump...you will be fine!

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Congratulations on the unexpected miracle!!

The fact that you are pg could explain the tiredness and also how emotional you're feeling.

Don't worry - it'll all work out. I'd keep the date and enjoy your wedding. It's very likely you won't be showing much at 4 months with your first baby.

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Congrats
I would keep the original date, moving things up might cause you some unwanted stress and you don't need that. Not to mention if you develop morning sickness, it's usually over by the 1st trimester so your 4th month should be smooth sailing, at least for most people. Good luck and keep us posted.

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Congratulations to you and your FH!!!! That is so Awesome!!!! It explains why you have been so tired and emotional!!! I would defintiely leave your wedding plans as they are. You have done alot of planning and moving it up might just be more stress than you need now. I would definitely call David's Bridal and see if you should go in for a fitting to see how much room they have to let your dress out or if they think that you should just order the next size before it would be too late to get.

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Congrats on your little surpise!!
i agree with the others keep the date.

MikeandLisa Posted: Jul 30, 2007 05:02 PM

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats wonderful news. i would keep the date, but consider getting a different dress that could hide a bump a bit easier. talk to davids bridal and ask if they recommend your current dress.. im SURE they work with this situation often. but, for tongiht, just relax and celebrate :)

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

Thanks everyone for your support!! I really need it!! me and FH will begin talking about our new furture tonight!! I really am still in shock! Thanks again for the support! I'll let you know what happens!

B22 Posted: Jul 30, 2007 06:16 PM

Re: ****UPDATE!!! I'm starting to freak out...

OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

this is great news!!

I would suggest having the wedding in November. If you will be 4 months by then, you will be in your SECOND trimester and take it from someone who has experienced pregnancy... you are EXHAUSTED during your first trimester.

You feel like you can move MOUNTAINS during months 4-7
