Getting Ready For Baby Challenge - Part 6

Parsnips I love the red evening dress! I thought about 2 dresses but as I spent so much on my main dress wanted to make the most of it

£75?!! My dress was 2k! I would have loved a soft pink or more cream version too confused

Buzz we're having a tipi wedding too, they're beautiful! What company are you looking at?

Ladies the dresses are looking lovely! I spoke to a wedding dress shop just after I found out and she said to wait till Jan to try on as my shape will change, that'll just about give her enough time to do the adjustments etc.

Booking in appointment last night, going to be consultant led as I've got a few health complications that although don't impact me now and haven't for about 3/4 years they still want me under consultant which is fine. When I had to list all the health problems I'd had in the last 10 years it made me a bit sad but then I look at how well I am now and I'm amazed at the journey I've been on! Midwife team were lovely!

Good luck all the testers today

P.s. Grumpy that car sounds amazing!

Ahaha Grumpy i have also had some pretty odd dreams!

Your dress is beautiful too!... i actually wanted that dress in Pink! But the only stockist i could find wanted £75 and if i didn't order it on that day i would lose my money!

Awhhh thanks ladies... heres a pic of me in the dress (we didn't get many good pics) and here a pic of me in my las vegas wedding dress (Wiggley it will show you what pants to not wear 😂)

I LOVE say yes to the dress!!!

Parsnips your dress is lovely!!

I had the craziest dreams including that I had the best massive awesome new top of the range Audi that basically drove itself and even played music I liked just from me starring to sing it! It was so cool and a metallic pale green with tinted windows, then it got stolen from a car park under my nose! And I was only test driving it so started freaking out! One of my friends then revealed they had taken it for a spin and left it somewhere random

Really want one now!

Mine, even!

This is mind (except I didn't wear a veil)

Good luck testing this morning penguin and otters. I'm only just starting af AF makes an appearance otters so no testing for me till next month.

Wiggley tasting the food for you wedding is one of the best parts. I just had lacey white underwear on my wedding day. confused your dress is amazing!!

I'm crashing, but just wanted to pop on and wish penguin & the other testers good luck for the morning

Wow fab dress confused,I love seeing wedding dresses! I vote everyone posts theirs, or future dresses! it'll be like say yes to the dress mumsnet edition!

That dress is incredible confused! I bet you looked amazing.

I hope it goes well with the tipi people tomorrow buzz... that's such a cool idea for a wedding!

Night all! X

Hope your day tomorrow goes ok confused. Hopefully it doesn't make you more anxious. 💐 The dress looks amazing, I could not pull off that in a million years!

Hope the tipi lives up to all your hopes buzz!

Wow! Thanks for all the advice ladies will have a little look and see, I imagine I will go for something comfortable most importantly! My seamstress is going to be sewing the bra in for more support.
Confused that is a very unforgiving dress! I bet you looked fabulous!
Buzz lovely lingerie set!

What an amazing dress confused, am sure you looked beautiful? How are you lovely? Is the anxiety still there?

Penguin how exciting!! Can't wait to see your update tomorrow morning.

buzz have an amazing time! Fab underwear choice :)

This was my main dress (you can see how unforgiving it is!)

I'm going into central for the day tomorrow.. we are doing mothers day this weekend for my mum and DH thought it might be good bonding time for me so told me to go with her... not sure about about walking all day (i have already got a bit of a waddle somehow!?!?) will go down but i'm trying for DH's sake because he's worried about me

Wiggley my dress was a very unforgiving sking tight mermaid and had a full corset inside the zip and buttons which when done up left a little bit of love handles poking out (i am very hourglass!) so i had very thin small lace pants and a waist trainer pulled down over my hips under my dress to make my silhouette seamless! However when i got changed into Dress 2 which was a french lace dress shaped like a japanese dress i just ditched the waist trainer and wore the tiny pants!

Evening ladies.

Buzz that's gorgeous. Looks similar to mine but I got mine from Ultimo. £135 nearly made me die when I saw the price of it. However...my bra is now on the small side because my boobs are bigger as I've put on weight since I bought it 9 months ago and the stocking belt thingy is nearly cutting my waist in half 😂 but apart from that I'm all good underwear wise.

Hopefully yours will fit still 🤞🏼

I wish I had a pic of my dress but I don't because mum banned me from having any on phone just incase oh saw it by accident. I will upload one tho once the big day has finally arrived.. (shitting my pants now!)

Thanks penguin I will. Good luck for your test in the morning! I'll be checking the thread impatiently

I am so so so tired. DH was making risotto but it took too long so I'm in bed, I feel like I've run a marathon today! Night all x

Evening all ❤️

I'm going to finalise the details with our tipi company that are doing our wedding! They're having an open day and I can't wait to see it in real life! Only seen pics so far so hope it lives up to my expectations!!

I bought my wedding underwear a few weeks ago, so hope my boobs done become ginormous by then!!

Jane the Virgin is like a telenovela which is like a Spanish soap opera, it's really tongue and cheek taking the piss out of how dramatic they are and it's just so good! I'd highly recommend it! :)

Grumpy make sure you try to speak to your DH about how you're feeling. Communication is so important, and especially now when you're getting ready to go through a massive change together.

No ring for me, so no advice on the dress/underwear situation I'm afraid wiggley. I'd say to try on a few options with your dress if you can and see what you feel most comfortable in? Enjoy your food tasting!

Glad you're feeling better, Hb. Italy sounds amazing!

No AF for me yet, so I think I'm going to test again in the morning. I have my family coming to stay this weekend with my gorgeous baby nephew, so I'm really excited about that!

Dancing I'm here if you need to chat sadly, I have been through the same thing myself very recently so I understand how heartbreaking it is. You are very much in my thoughts.

Grumpy work is actually ok, thanks. A welcome distraction! Although saying that, SO pleased it's Friday as I'm exhaused. Love your mega clear positives
