I'm sure you don't look fat, you're just pregnant - its not the same! Maxi dresses are fantastic during pregnancy for streamlining your shape & accentuating that bump! Also, make the most of that cleavage by wearing something low cut. :o

Have you got anything with an empire line to give you definition between your boobs and tummy? I found that made all the difference to looking pregnant rather than a bit chubby.

On my way into town just now to see if I can find something . It's cos I was already a 16 when I became pg and my belly just looks so fat rather that pg . It's got a lot bigger but it's square and quite jiggly rather that round and hard . Sad

Oh hun I was an 18 and at 23 weeks it's a bit tricky to determine it but I found something that hugs the bump makes it more pregnant looking rather then fat? How about a nice top and trousers?

Empire line all the way then!!!

Tbh my bump seems big to me (I'm on dc#2 & nearly 21wks) but if I wear one of my 'normal' t-shirts, even with a maternity skirt/trousers, I look plump. Whereas, wearing a maternity T that kind of clings under and around the bump, rather than glances over it, makes it look more bump-like. It's def worth getting some well-fitting maternity clothes when you get to this stage of pg, if only for a bit of a self-esteem boost, rather than for a function iyswim.

I hope you managed to buy a lovely outfit & have a pg glow tonight!!
