Re: Would you be mad?
Its annoying, but don't get yourself worked up about it. I wouldnt agree to be a bridesmaid that close to my due date, but thats just me. And if she would rather have her wedding then and chance you not being able to attend, well, then thats on her. Weddings are a wonderful thing, and yes its wonderful to go to all that you're invited to, BUT, I have missed a few for various reasons and life goes on!

Re: Would you be mad?
Weddings and pregnancy can be tricky-- I experienced it as a bride, where my MOH was pregnant.
While you cannot expect your friend to plan her wedding around your due date-- especially if she has a special time she wanted to get married, I think her comment about her slipping on your amniotic water are a little insensitive and kinda stupid IMO.
Let her do what she wants- and maybe you will be there, and maybe you won't-- she knows you are prego.

Re: Would you be mad?
I wouldn't really be upset, but I probably wouldn't be comfortable being in the wedding party so close to my due date, I'm sure your friend will understand

I agree. I'd just warn her that if it's close to your due date, that you might not be able to come or be in the party, that's all. 
But i don't think it's anything to get upset about. Annoying, yes? Mad... not quite.

Re: Would you be mad?
i wouldn't be mad, sometimes you just can't plan these things the way you want.
my best friend is getting married in october, 4 weeks after i am due (i am not in the wedding party, it's family only) but even if i was i wouldn't expect her to have picked a date further away from my due date. just the same as she wouldn't have expected me to not TTC because her wedding was coming up!

Re: Would you be mad?
I would try not to be mad, but I would let her know that if she had her wedding so close to your due date you would probably not be able to be in the wedding. I am sorry but I know when I was pregnant with my DS the last thing I would have wanted to do a few days before my due date was participate in a wedding party. I could see going to the wedding, but being in the wedding at that time in your pregnancy is a whole different story. With that being said that is just me, others may not have a problem with it at all. I think it really depends on the person.
Anyway, try not to get yourself upset over anything. Right now you need to just worry about you and your baby.

Re: Would you be mad?
I wouldn't be mad, but I also would not be a bridesmaid. That time of year has beeter deals for reception hallls so this may have to do with getting a great deal and not about not caring about you. If you tried to plan around everyones life you would never be able to set a date.

Re: Would you be mad?
I believe November to early April should be off peak wedding season. She should be able to get similar deals.
If she really wants you in the bridal party she should be abit more considerate of your condition.
If not, tell her to pick whatever date she wants 'cus it is difficult planning a wedding around so many people.

Re: Would you be mad?
I wouldn't get mad. Let her do what she wants. I feel like there is always something and you can't plan around everything. That said, I am due 11/2, my sister-in-law is getting married on 11/15 and I am in the wedding party and my sister is due with her baby on 11/23 (and she is invited to the wedding as well). We are all just rolling with the punches right now and will deal with it all when the date gets closer.
