visiting work after having baby - help me look half decent please!!

[muminheels]

I'm having major confidence crisis re the above and no idea what to wear. This will be my first time back in the office after having my baby - I'm bringing LO in to meet everyone. Thing is, I feel fat and frumpy but don't want to look fat and frumpy! I was a size 8 pre-baby and now 3 months after LO born have still over a stone to lose so I guess probably a size 12ish?? Any wisdom/outfit ideas would be great - especially if you have been in the same boat. Oh, height wise am about 5'9. Help!!!

Bright casual maxi-dress, and nice make-up and hair to emphasise glowing new goddess mother? A friend at work wafted in like this with her LO and glowed impressively despite a total lack of sleep and an extra stone

you can carry LO in a babybjorn/wrap sling to hide your tummy? Then you just need to sort out makeup, hair and nails

Thanks goodegg and SickOnMyShoulder - yes, maxidress great idea and definitely agree re the baby sling. To be honest, I know no-one will be looking at me any way, hopefully my lovely LO is star of the show...but you know what it's like, you still want to feel half-presentable. Sort of a ''I haven't tried too hard'' look, when really I am planning it with military precission and asking MN too!! Any more ideas v welcome, thanks again ladies.

I do think the maxi is a good idea, but also this is rather cute with leggings

and the floral print will hide any mummy tummy, and any spillage 'situations' encountered on route to the office.
