Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
I'm pregnant now, and my son will be 11 months old as well when I get married. #1 my son is NOT even attening our wedding because at 11 months old, the neediness is way tooo overwhelming. And #2 when did she grow balls and make the decisions for your day? I may be a bit hormonal, and I NEVER EVER complain, but I don't think the baby should be there at all. If your ok with it, thats fine, but YOU make the decisions for YOUR day. Thats JMHO. Sorry if I offended you, but I felt I needed to get that off my chest.

Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
Are you sure she was being serious? My sister is pregnant, and her daughter, my neice, will be 6 months old at our wedding. I always joke around and say she is my flower girl and that my nephew can wheel her down in a wagon, but it really isn't realistic. She is definately going to be in pics wearing a really cute dress. I love the idea though, only cause it is my sister, not my FSIL. I guess its different in that aspect. If she was serious though, just tell your FH to say that the idea of having her be pulled down in a wagon is not a realistic one, and in reality, if she can't walk, she can't be a flower girl. Don't worry though. You are the bride, it will all work out in your favor.

Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
IMO, this is something that needs to be handled by FH and you, together. What does FH feel? Can he talk to her? I dont think you are over reacting at all. Its YOUR wedding and I think that there is a polite, respectful way to tell her that her new baby will not be in the bridal party. I think that FH needs to get involved in this situation.

Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
You're not overreacting. I would tell her flat out that infants are NOT welcome, and will NOT be a part of the BP, and the it is not up for discussion.

Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
you arent overreacting at all. IMO she is a bit too young to be a flowergirl. i heard somewhere that any child under 5 is difficult to have in a wedding party.

Re: small issue......repost from 07ers board!
You can always just have your FSIL buy her a dress and appear in a few pictures or maybe be carried down the aisle, just as a small part and to avoid conflict. It's your FSIL that in the end will have to deal with having an 11 month old at the wedding chasing her around.
