I need to find a dress ...

I know it is early, but my BIL is getting married 5 weeks after my EDD, so I need to find something that is nice, not black, and yet will hide my post-prego body.

I am willing to wear something maternity as long as it is not obviously maternity - but I think that is my best bet in planning this far in advance.

(BIL - June Wedding)
(We are due in the end of April)

any suggestions ...

I'm not sure planning this far ahead is the best way to go. You're better off seeing how you carry, what size you are and how the weight comes off.

I had Ella at the end of June and went to a wedding 6 weeks later in a dress I had pre-pregnancy...

I would try on some dresses now and since you are about 5 months and then by a dress that fits you now and take it in if you need to. Keep in mind to get a little bigger if you plan to BF to accomidate your chest size. The reason I say go now is beacuse most people i Know including myself, after I gave birth I looked the way I did when I was 5 months pg., I was in my friends wedding this past june and I delivered 4/13 so it was about the same time frame but I ordered my dress bigger and I went by what I was about 3-4 months prego. I also think your best bet is to get an empire waist and their are soooo many styles like that now and it would definitly hid your post baby body and look stylish at the same time

I would definatly wait to find a dress. Your body is going to change alot after the baby is born.
