Can a pregnant woman be a bridesmaid?

Patient's question:

My best friend is getting married recently, and I'm quite happy about it. She called me and asked me to be her bridesmaid, but I found out yesterday that I'm pregnant. So, I wanted to know if it's okay for a pregnant woman to be a bridesmaid?

Doctor's answer:

If a pregnant woman is in good health and has already passed the first three months of her pregnancy, she can be a bridesmaid. Because the fetus's development is not particularly good during the first three months of pregnancy, and if one is not careful, it can easily lead to miscarriage. Therefore, if a pregnant woman wants to be a bridesmaid, it is best to have passed the dangerous period of the first three months and pay attention to her own safety. She should not wear high heels or drink alcohol to avoid affecting the fetus's development.
