Struggling on when to get pregnant
My husband and I have been married for a little over 3 months. We are very conscious of the fact that we want to start a family sooner than later. We have about 5 weddings next year that I am stressing about, and 1 of them I’m a bridesmaid in, the other I’m the matron of honor. I guess my question is more so if it’s better to be pregnant at all of these events, or newly postpartum. (First time mom) In an ideal world, our timeline would either be one of two options (i just like the timeline of these, no particular other reason we chose these months):
A. Pregnant this August, have the baby in April (postpartum for all weddings)
B. Pregnant in November, have the baby in July (still pregnant for 3/5 weddings)
Does anyone have experience with this? Pros? Cons? To both situations? Thank you!!!
