Just found out I'm pregnant and getting married in 3 weeks

I just found out that I'm pregnant and I'm getting married in 3 weeks, what should I do. There are no time for alternations to my wedding dress. I am afraid that all of my guests, family, and parents are going to think that this is a "shot-gun" wedding now. How big will I get in three weeks time. Will I still be able to fit in to my dress.

 Maybe you won't get too big NEW

Maybe you won't get too big to fit in your dress. It depends on your body, the growth of your baby, and your current weight. People who are a little overweight or obese to begin with usually don't show until later on in their pregnancy, some time in the second trimester. That's how it was for me anyway.

If you are on the slimmer side then you may be in trouble. I have seen pregnant women wear a girdle to help hide their belly but that is not recommended. You don't want to restrict the blood flow in your uterus, and to your baby. That's why you shouldn't wear tight jeans when you are expecting either.

You could try holding a small bouquet of flowers in front of your stomach, and keep it in your hand for the wedding, pictures after, and the reception. It will be tricky and very annoying, but you may be able to pull it off. At least you are getting married to your baby's father. That's a good thing right?
