Opinions needed-dress for a wedding and daughters baptism.

I don't post on here very often but would really like some opinions on the dress's I'll (hopefully manage to) link below.

I have an 8 week old dd and I'm hoping to lose 1 1/2 stone in 8 weeks in time for my best friends wedding and daughters baptism. Is this possible with healthy eating and a little bit exercise? I'm thinking swimming, zumba and whatever I can fit in doing at home.

Would it be a bad idea to order the dress I decide on in a 10 in the hope that it will fit. I'm 5'4" usually an 8/10 in dress's and around 8 1/2 stone. Im currently size 12/14 and 10 stone.

I love this Whistles dress but have no idea what Whistles sizing is like?

Also really like this Monsoon dress

Bit unsure about this French Connection dress, maybe slightly bridal?

I'd be very grateful for any opinions suggestions of other dress's, or tips on losing the baby weight. I can't really diet as I'm breastfeeding and also I don't see the point in crash diets.

I love the French Connection dress, and it's a bargain. I buy a lot from FC, I am normally a 12 but a 10 in FC as their clothes come up much bigger.

1.5 stone is a fair bit to lose in 8 weeks. But I got very thin very quickly when I was breastfeeding, so you could probably do it quite easily.

I think French Connection sizing is quite big, I just had a look and the FC dress I wore to my older daughters baptism is a size 6. She was 5 months old so I'm hopeful I should be able to fit into an 8 by the end of August.

I really do love the Whistles dress but I'm thinking I could get the other 2 for less.
