1st Trimester
Vent (long)
So my friend is getting married in June and I am her matron of honor. She is turning into a bit of a Bridezilla by making a few comments like you can't get pregnant before my wedding how will you be able to help me if you are? I will only be 22 weeks at the wedding. She is one of those people that makes really rude comments and gets annoyed if you are annoyed with her.
So I told her on Sunday that I was pg b/c I had to up my dress size for the wedding b/c the dress was tight to begin with and they were running out of that style. I figured I might as well get it bigger so they can take it in if they have to. I know I'm probably jumping the gun b/c I'm soo early, but I wanted to make sure the dress would fit. When I told her she was like Oh. I have had a previous m/c so I thought she would be excited, but she acted like I was inconviencing her.
Today she asked me how my labs went and how far along I was. I told her and she was like I thought people didn't find until 5 or 6 weeks. I told her since I was trying i knew when I ovulated so I started testing about 10 days after that. She was like so is that a guarantee? I told her that a positive is a positive no matter how early. She told me to chill out. I wasn't mad at all actually, I was just trying to make a point. Then she said that's not necessarily the case with everyone and she said trust me I know and I said I understand that I'm just telling you about my situation and then she said she was done and didn't want to talk about it anymore.
Do I seem like I'm being overly sensitive? I'm really regretting telling her now. God forbid I lose this one too, I'm afraid she'll be like well I told you so.

she def is being unfair. I'm in my SIL wedding in Aug and i'll be 32 wks. I warned her before the fact and she is perfectly fine with it. I had to ask her if i could swear a diffrent dress b/c the one she picked didn't work well with a 8month pregant person. It turned out she loved the one that i liked so she switched to that dress.
Just ingore her she'll get over it and realize how stupid she is being. My sister was the same way last year with her wedding but she got over it fast!!
Good lord! Why are you friends with her? She sounds like a total turd.
Yeah- your friend is being a major witch! My BFF knew we were trying and her date is July 31 so I will be 7 months along at her wedding. She's very cool with it.
Some brides don't realize that the world does not revolve around their wedding and themselves.
depending on how good of a friend this is, if I was you, I would totally consider backing out of the wedding party.
She is definately not being a nice bride! I am sorry that you have to go through that.
If it was my wedding, I would be happy to have a pregnant woman as one of my BM or MOH. It is good luck!
Don't let her get you down! Hopefully she will realize that she is being a meanie and understand this is the best thing in the world for you and she will be more supportive.
Well I already promised me and one of her other bridesmaid's are doing her decorations AND I work with her. It's basically a lose-lose situation lol.
While her response was inappropriate, she may not know what to say. ?She may be concerned for you and just not know how to be supportive. ?That doesn't mean she has the right to be a Bridezilla - no one does. ?It also doesn't mean she shouldn't be positive and supportive of your pregnancy ?
Give it some time and hopefully she will improve. ?Until then, try to ignore it. ?
Yeah, is this someone you really want to invest your precious time and hard earned money on?? I would tell her she needs to find a new matron of honor! She is being completely self-centered, and someone needs to slap some sense into her!
I got married this past October, and one of my bridesmaids was pregnant. We talked about how great it was that she was pregnant, and I was absolutely thrilled to death! Now, we are pregnant together
