Great...looks like I need a bigger size!!

I'm in a wedding in September...I know...I know...I'm going to be huge.

Anyway, they ordered a size 12 for me and I fit into the dress now.Chat Icon Now I'm going to have to order the 14 or the 16. Geez, I didn't think I was THAT big.

No worries, a size 14 or 16 is not bad at all for someone pregnant!! Plus, those sizes run small as it is. Chat Icon

Ugh - will they give you a credit for the first dress you ordered or do you have to buy both?

i was 32 weeks PG when i was a BM- they ordered me a 16 or 18- cant remember- i nearly died when i saw the #, but its better to have material taken off then to have it added on. Id go with the bigger size.

Instead of re-ordering, I would just have them order more fabric so they can alter the dress to your body.

One of my BMs got pregnant AFTER we ordered the dresses and that's what she did rather than order a new dress.

I hate to sound like a downer, but I think I would go with 18. I was a bridesmaid 6 weeks PP after DS and I ordered a 16. She did need to take it in some but I was wearing a size 10 in regular clothes.
Now, with my 2nd I gained only 20lbs and even at 8 months I wouldn't have been able to fit into a 16.

I was a BM when I was 5 months pregnant. I ordered a ridiculous size that I won't dare to even post. When I went in for my fitting you should have seen the girl's face when she brought out the dress because it was WAY too big! Chat Icon She thought they screwed up and ordered the wrong size. You can always take in, but if it's too small you're SOL!

I'm thinking it runs small...I only gained 15 pounds so far...there is no way...I fit into a size 8 clothes right now.
