“Am I A Jerk For Being 30 Weeks Pregnant At My Sister’s Wedding?”

What a shame people think this way. A wedding should be about two people who love eachother and celebrating with family and friends. What are you celebrating when you need to be the center of attention and need to control how everybody looks? I don't think these silly rules are about love or commitment or friendship. I couldn't care less wether my 80yr old uncle were to wear his old jeans and skipper jersey or my sister looking spectacular with her gorgeous long hair or my 6 yr old nephew showing all his dancemoves. It could have been an extra special moment for OP and her family: her sister getting maried and OP being pregnant are both important things and these things happening at the same time is extra special. Something to enjoy and for their parents to be proud of.

Turn it around on her & admonish her for getting engaged & planning a wedding while you & your husband are trying to have a baby. You started trying before she got engaged, so she is the one disrupting everything. They should push the wedding to not take away from your childs entrance into this world.

My niece had her future SIL as maid of honour, she was nearly 8 months pregnant o the day. My niece made sure the SILs dress would accommodate and look good on her growing belly. That's what love is, celebrating all the good things in life however and whenever they show up. These bridezillas are toxic af.

Holy c**p, what did I just read? My sister was 30 weeks pregnant at my wedding and I couldn't have cared less. It was a surprise pregnancy, and I was SO excited at the prospect of being an aunt. My sister was my MOH and I wouldn't have changed that for anything. SHE felt bad because she couldn't wear the bridesmaid dress we had picked, but I didn't care at all. I told her just to get a black dress. Her pregnancy took away zero from my wedding. Zero. And if people wanted to talk to her about her pregnancy, who cares? And then 10 weeks later, my husband and I became an aunt and uncle to our awesome nephew! We used him as our "practice baby" before we had our own kids. That bride should be ashamed of herself. I'd distance myself from that family if they treated me like that.

Honestly, life goes on, people marry and have children. Why is it a competition? I was going to be a bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding until we realized it was five days after my due date. I dropped out and promised to attend if I could. Sure enough, my kid kept me waiting a full two weeks before being born. We went to the wedding, I ate everything that wasn't nailed down, the hotel room my husband and I rented looked like a rock band had trashed it there were so many cups and wrappers tossed around. The wedding was wonderful, the bride beautiful, my kid spectacular and 35 years later we are all still best friends. It's not difficult.
