My lovely pregnant daughter has a very large bust which is getting bigger each day, I'm looking for up to date recommendations for pregnancy/maternity bras, swimwear and maybe a dress or two as it's a summer pregnancy. Need tobe suitable for bigger boobs. She is normally a size 10 and is only 5' so I feel like I'm asking the impossible,.

I’m about the same as your daughter, and I found wrap dresses from Serephine were absolutely brilliant during my pregnancy. I had to wear a bralett underneath them (or they would have been too low cut), but I wore them practically everyday. I bought quite a few on Vinted too. Also H&M Mama do great simple dresses for summer. I found them stretchy enough fit my bust and easy to wear.

For bras, I went for the Boux Avenue nursing bras, as they aren’t underwired but gave good support. An XL size would fit a larger burst, and they‘re supportive but also stretchy. They often go on sale too. Excellent postpartum too, but if she doesn’t want to breastfeed, they do the same style without the clasps for breastfeeding:

For swimwear, I went for this in a Medium and it was great. Fitted me on the body but stretchy enough on the bust, and provided enough support:
