Hello am seeking your help again!

I am currently a generous size 16 with a post baby tummy. I am desparate for some clothes that look vaguely flattering and also access for breastfeeding. I don't want to spend too much as I am hoping to diet/exercise soon (famous last words!) I am normally hourglass but currently with belly! I think I look best in v neck knee length dresses/tunics with trousers. I am looking for some ideas for dresses and also bootleg style back jersey yoga type trousers to wear underneath.....i can't fit into my old jeans and look terrible in leggings due to tree trunk type lower legs.....!

Am I asking the impossible?

Please help - links would be fantastic! Thanks

I bought this dress, and its now half price!!Its stretchy material so you can pull it down to breastfeed and I found it flattering for my post baby tummy. It didn't magically make it disappear, but it looked the best it could IYKWIM. The waist detail made me look slimmer than other looser styles.

Its also synthetic material so poo washes out easily (which I know from personal experience!)
