i know its a bit of a strange request but.... I'm making my wedding dress and on my big day i'll be 19weeks pg with second baby. I'm trying to get as much made in advance as possible but obviously don't know how big my bump will be!
I wore a size 12 pre pg and would really appreciate it if you could measure around the widest point of your bump

to be honest i'll be amazed if anyone reads this, fits my criteria and has a measuring tape to hand but hey, i've seen stranger requests on here being granted
thanks in advance!

Um...I am 19 weeks and was a size 14 when I got pregnant but am now a size 12 due to bad morning sickness and losing 1.5 stone. If you dont get your ideal model I will do it lol .

However I think it might be quite a rough measurement from anyone as bump size can be so different? I for example am in a size smaller normal clothes at this stage but other friends have had huge obvious baby bumps, some just the same etc

Congratulations on both counts though

i fit ur criteria but have lost weight during preg and have a small bump...dont have measuring tape to hand but will try to find one and let you know. im really not that big at all and im 20 weeks...im 5ft 4 too. and im all bump havent put on weight anywhere else, iv lost it!! everyone is different tho, my friend was size 12 pre preg and was twice the size as me at 20 weeks, her bump was huge....so measurements do differ

Think it will be really hard to tell!

I was a size 16 when pregnant with my first and didnt have any bump at all at 20 weeks. Lost weight through morning sickness so generally smaller and probably a flabby tummy helped hide it but was wearing all my normal clothes.

Might be good to look at pics from first pregnancy and see whether your bump was a big or small one and go from there?

thanks for replies and congratulations!

I think I'm just going to have to do all of the dress now and leave the centre front panel until the last minute! its annoying because i just want to be able to tick it off my list as done but hey, my growing bump has got other ideas!

good idea re looking at pics from 1st pg. we actually took one every week but I'm already alot bigger!

Oh and if anyone does have a minute and can find a tape measurement easily... your measurements would still be appreciated though so I can at least make sure I leave enough fabric for centre panel!

thanks all
