Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
First of all, congrats!!!!! You will probably have a bit of a bump, due to baby and bloating. Depending on your dress, it could make a difference if you want to keep it secret. I would wait to get your dress altered in the chest and stomach area. (The chest is known to grow early in pregnacy.) I'd get the length of your dress done and ask them to keep any scrap fabric, just in case it's needed. Good luck!!!!!!

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
first of all, congrats on the wedding AND the pregnancy!! what an exciting time!!! 
it's impossible to predict exactly what you will look like at that time, because everyone is so different. but i agree with waterspout, you will probably have at least some belly changes (bloating/baby belly) as well as possible other changes, like bigger boobs or bigger hips/thighs. i would look seriously into getting your dress expanded as close to the wedding as possible.
good luck, and we are here for you!!
ETA: you might want to check out people's albums of belly pics to get an idea of what different people look like at 14-15 weeks. i know i have a pic of myself in my album at that time, just to give you a sense.

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
Congratulations on both!!!!!!
You may or may not show, and if it's your first, there's really no way to tell.
At 14 weeks, no one had ANY idea I was pregnant, except my boobs were bigger.
I would suggest getting your dress a little bigger to accommodate your pregnancy, it can always be taken in if needed.
You will be tired for the first trimester, which is right up until your wedding, so enlist the help of anyone you can to take some of the stress off yourself. Definitely try to get as much done as early as possible!!

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
Congratulations!!! This is great news!
It's hard to say if you will show or not. I was starting to show by then, well, I had a belly anyway. I think it was a few more weeks before I was obviously pregnant. By 14-15 weeks, some will be baby, but most weight gain is bloat. So you may need more room in the stomach, waist, and chest area of your gown, depending upon how it fits now. I would tell them at your dress shop or your seamstress and see if they have suggestions.
Yeah, you also may be exhausted for the first trimester, many people are. So I think it's a good suggestion to start looking for people to do things for you. The final arrangements may be too much for you to handle at that point.
Good luck!

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
Congrats on your big news, and your upcoming wedding!!!!
I was 4 months pg at my wedding and according to anyone else- you couldn't tell. Accoring to me, I looked a little chunky for me. I did have a dress that covered the mid-drift. (Only if I had known how big my boobs looked in the dress!  )
Like the other girls said, it depends on your body type and how you carry your pregnancy.
Best of luck & Congrats again!!!

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
Congrats!!
I got married at about 18 weeks pregnant. I had a little bump, but also found that my body had started changing. My seamstress knew so I had my dress altered very late, she also made me a bolero jacket b/c I wanted to make sure I wasnt feeling self conscious on my big day.

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
Congratulations and I assume you will have a little baby bump at that point. I would notify the place you got your gown and maybe it can be altered or come in a different size..

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!

I just took a home preganncy test yesterday and it was positive! I am getting married November 9th so I woill be approximately 14-15 weeks. Will I show by then? I'm so excited and confused on what to do! Any advice?
First - CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Second - don't panic...everything will work out fine. You probably will have a bump by then depending on your figure and how you will carry, but it's not something to stress over. That being said..it also depends on the type of dress you have. Either way..I'm sure everything will turn out fine.
Again..congratulations and I hope everything goes smoothly!

Re: Pregnant and planning a wedding!!
