5 days until wedding...and pregnant...

Hi all,

I`m getting married in 5 days and have found out I am 6 weeks pregnant, I`m excited but it wasn`t planned until after the wedding. 

I feel sick all the time, tired and am also worried about the not drinking....

Does anyone have any tips? I`ve posted it in the baby talk forum too

 Thanks x

I don't have any tips myself but just wanted to say congratulations!!!

Congratulations :) x

If i was you i would just say i had a headache from all the stress you are ok to have one or two throughout the day but then just got to orange juice :) x

First of all, congratulations on your wedding and your special news.

I don't really have anything remotely helpful to say (as usual!) but the drinking thing could easily be disguised by sticking to Coke or lemonade - no-one will know they aren't 'proper' drinks, and getting your H (ooh! excitement!) to make sure that he is the one ordering the drinks. You could also, on the night, say that you've already had a few and feel a bit giddy and want to enjoy the evening - nobody will know any different. It'll be much easier to 'get away with' than you'd think.

Congratulations.  Drinkwise have you thought of incorporating some non-alcoholic cocktails into your bar and that way then be able to hide it from the guests if you don't wish to tell yet and you also have the fancy drink. 

I take it the OH knows....does anyone else?

It would be pretty easy to ask the staff at the reception venue to give you some appletizer in your 'toast' glass and no-one would know the difference. If anyone else asks why not drinking just say you want to enjoy your day and remember all of it!!!

A drunk bride is NEVER classy anyway!!! x

Congrats, how exciting!

I would just stick to appletizers, then it will just look like normal fizz.

If people offer to buy you drinks, just say you have had enough.

No advice sorry, but Congratulations!!

Congratulations!!

My advice would be exactly as others have said, either ask your OH to order you soft drinks (no-one will notice) or just pass it off as slight headache/want to remember everything from the evening/had enough already.

Ooohhh very many congratulations, try not to worry the adrenaline on the day will get you through, I was in the same predicament and it made the day even more special, even now my son asks why his big sister was a bridesmaid at our wedding when he wasn't There and I can say to him that he was :) so relax and just enjoy.

Like the other's have said, let the bar staff in on the secret & let them serve you something that looks like the real deal but is non alcoholic. Then later in the day just say you've had a headache & taken paracetamol & you don't want to mix that with drink. Congratulations!!!

Congrats. Another drink you can disguise is bucks fizz. Let people think you're drinking this when actually you're just drinking fanta or something similar.

Congratulations!

I don't have anything practical to add, just wanted to say congratulations. How lovely that you're baby will be with you on your wedding day.
