Cousins Wedding

I'm 13 weeks now and have a wedding to go to in March...I don't want to steal the thunder and reveal I am pregnant before the wedding (or at) I'm still fairly small but I'm afriad of how big I'll get in the next 7 weeks

That's been my dilemma my sister is about my same size and didn't get to the point where she couldn't cover up until around six months...I'm barely over 3 months now... By the wedding I'll be 5...maybe by wearing a flowly dress I should be fine? I'll just be a guest and its a large wedding...

I was 20 wks pregnant at my own wedding and it was hardly noticeable but tbh I'd share the news now that the wedding is still a couple months away. I told everyone I was pregnant around 20 weeks I figured it was a good time since that's when it's less likely to miscarry and you start showing a not more around then :) but any time is good :) fortunately for like the first 7 months you can still pass off as "getting a little chunky"

I'll be 23 weeks when I have to attend a wedding, by the time you aattend your cousins they will be able to tell, I suggest informing your cousin and others before the wedding just so they can all get the excitement for you out of them before the wedding, than you wont be stealing the thunder on the day :)

Thank you! I'm just not sure with this being my first baby when is a safe time to share the news with extended family.. I'm not actually a bridesmaid :( I'm just a guest. I'll be barely 5 months..no one can tell I'm pregnant yet. Am I overthinking this?

My sister was engaged before I got pregnant. I felt bad at first, when I told her I was pregnant,  because I felt the same way. Needless to say I was 7 months pregnant maid of honor lol. I would let her know u are pregnant...i doubt she will kick u out of her wedding party;) plus I'm sure u will make a cute pregnant bridesmaid! :)
