I was just on the knot reading ym local board a bride on there that was suposed to be married in the summer of 2008 has now moved her wedding up to August of 2007..............yes thats definatly 2 months away.
She is pregnant......
If you found out you were pregnant would you move the wedding up or just have the baby and have the wedding as originally scheduled?

I voted I'd wait. We have been dating for 13 years...If I got pregnant now while planning my wedding...I'd be so mad at myself! Is that being too honest? I'd be happy about being preganant...but couldn't I have waited a few more months?
Me too! And one of the 08 Brides just posted today that she's in this situations, postponing the wedding til after the baby.
look who bumped the thread
As for me... I really don't know what I would do. We are < 6 months away so we couldn't really move it up that much, but if we got preg now I'd be visibly pg on our wedding day.

I think that we would probably get legally married and then have the reception sometime after the baby...

That's what I thought about too... we'd both be obviously prego! I think my main concern now would be the fact that my wedding dress wouldn't fit me and I'd have to get a maternity dress! But honestly, I'd keep my date the same... As I posted on this thread before I love my wedding date, and really wouldn't change it unless I absolutely had to. And then FH and I would be married before the baby was here. The only think that I would regret is that I am just finishing school in May and that I really don't even want to work when I have babies, or maybe just part time if anything... but if we got prego now I'd have to work full time because we have all these loans to pay back and FH will just be doing a residency.

ummmm it really depends.. if i get pregnant like 3-4 months before my wedding i think i'd just do it.. other wise it will probably be to tiring and stressful..

I've had many a friends move up the wedding date. Because you don't want to look to big in your dress, and then after you have the baby, it'll be harder to go on a honeymoon and really enjoy it, since you might not have anyone to help care for your baby or you'd be to worried about them while you were away to really enjoy yourself.

Re: What would you do? *****With Poll*****
this actually happened to a friend of mine. She was supposed to get married September of 2004 and in January found out she was pregnant. Luckily her RH had another date free and all her other vendors, so she moved the wedding up to March of that year. she was only 3-4 months, so she wasn't showing yet.
I think if i wasn't too far along, then I would move it up.

Re: What would you do? *****With Poll*****
if we found out i was pregnant and we decided that we were going to have the baby i would def post pone the wedding and most likely have a very small ceremony and wedding after the baby was born (i have great benefits at my job, so i dont see any reason we would need to marry for insurance purposes)....in reality, there is no way we could afford the type of wedding we are having now if we were also having a baby, it would be so selfish of us to do so, when all this money could benefit the child - this is why we are very careful and use birth control....to be honest, if i found out i was pregnant i would be devastated - not just because we are getting married this year but because we are not ready for a baby at all, and wedon't want one, i think we would both be very upset if it happened - so im very nervous about it happening and try to be very careful - ive actually considered abstaining - but thats is way too hard - b/c we'd be married and still be abstaining
even though we are engaged and ppl know we are getting married b/c we love eachother, im sure it would be perceived differently if i walked down the aisle pregnant - i just rather wait it out, include the child in the ceremony, and do it 100% because we love eachother and want to be married - not because we are having a baby....i dont think id mind if i found out my parents got married after i was born - at least i would know that they really loved eachother and weren't doing it for the wrong reasons...
ETS: just wanted to add, that unless one of us actually became pregnant we really dont know what we would do - its always easier to give an answer without it actually happening to you.....i say i would be devastated but who knows, there's always a chance that we'd be happy and push the wedding foward - the complete opposite of what i 'think' i would do and how i 'think' i would feel...you can't walk in those shoes until are actually walking in them!
