None of us had any idea she was even pregnant but that's a different story. I am still bitter toward her because she put us all in a bad spot by not telling anyone until so late. Add in that it was the holidays when everyone is crazy busy, anyway, and well...it was a huge headache.

I don't know, that is a month's notice, which means she's 7.5-8 months pregnant.. and you didn't know?
I kind of feel like a month is pretty good notice, even if the holidays make things more difficult. And it's not like there's some obligation to announce pregnancy, it's just common socially. YMMV.
