What to wear in early pregnancy

Especially in the heat! I'm struggling with what on earth to wear as I have a very obvious bloat-bump but it's a bit early to flaunt it. Outside of work I'm ok but at work I'm struggling to look smart as I can't tuck shirts in to my maternity trousers due to the waist band, which I want covering, and I don't really want my bump to be super obvious. Long tops have never been my thing but I'm now wondering if that's my only option? If so, any recommendations?

I already bought a gorgeous wrap dress from Depop in a size up thinking it'd be perfect but my boobs have decided to be too big for it already so back to the drawing board.

I was wearing skater dresses to hide my early pregnancy.

Hi @deliveroodoo
I raided my Mum's wardrobe, i'm wearing all her dresses, some of them are from C&A back in the day, still look really good xx

Loose dresses are your friend. I have a couple of flowy collarless shirt dresses which are perfect. I'm 12 weeks and have a proper bloat on, plus my boobs are huge! I also have a loose linen jumpsuit from Zara which has been great.

I have a few loose tops anyway on account of big boobs pre preggo. If anyone's noticed my belly, they haven't said anything.
