Help me dress my newly postnatal body!

I'm usually a size 12 with a decent bust. Am 4 weeks postpartum with DC3 and have a pretty noticeable mum tum still. It's early days, I'm nearly 40 so don't ping back and have a diastasis recti (separated abdominal muscles) from previous pregnancies, exacerbated by the latest one.
As it's now summer, unlike when I had my other two, I'm struggling to dress! I am BFing and have quite a few suitable tops but none of my pre-pregnancy 'bottoms' of any description fit me. And it's so warm to be wearing maternity jeans and leggings still! My maternity dresses are no good for BFing in. Stuff fits weird cos of my still quite big tum. Help?!

Ditto! This is a bump...
But also I have massive boobs which look so droopy in nursing bras (I miss underwire!).
