As a special event, they want to be the spotlight of the day and even the days leading up to it. They are not wrong to wish so. However, as much as it must sting, it is essential to remember that the world does not revolve around one person.
The wedding day is significant for the couple; some brides have been looking forward to it for a long time. Scratch that. Some brides have been looking forward to it all their lives.
We’ll call this woman Sara, and her sister, Judy, for the sake of their story. Sara and Judy are so close that Judy was the first person Sara told, asides from her husband when she found out she was pregnant. Their sisterly bond is often enviable.
She wanted to tell their parents and her husband’s parents around the 10th week, but Judy convinced her to wait until her wedding in September, when she would be four months in. Anything for a sister, yeah?
Pregnancy is filled with many emotions for a woman; sometimes, it gets overwhelming. Talking to one’s mother makes things significantly better. Well, the first trimester was awful for Sara. There were bouts of morning sickness and exhaustion
Change of Plan
It was finally D-day, a day Sara was probably looking forward to just as much as Judy. Halfway through the wedding night, Sara asked her sister when the announcement was happening… it was happening, right?
Sara was distraught, especially because she had a really awful first trimester and only had her sister and husband to lean on. She decided she wasn’t putting the announcement on hold any longer for her sister’s sake, and she and her husband pulled her parents aside and quietly told them.
