Hi all, would be very grateful for your help, and as I'm not in the UK, need to order very soon if getting online. I need a dress for a wedding next week, when I will be 22 weeks pregnant, and would also hope to use it for the Christmas period i.e. office party (smart casual/pretty dress), Christmas dinner. I am 5"5 and size 10 (pre pregnancy). Bit self conscious about my knees and ankles, they're not the slimmest, and a bit concerned that puffiness and flat shoes will rule out above the knee dresses by Christmas....not even sure about heels for next week! Not sure about black for a wedding, also do like colour...despite maternity websites recommending dark colours. So what do you think of these, and is there anything else you can recommend:

(perhaps crap with my lower legs)

I've just bought a nice one from m&p for a wedding. It's called 'print drape dress' and is £48. Sorry don't know how to do links! I'll be about 22 weeks and also size ten prior to pregnancy.

Is M&p, mamas & papas or perhaps m & s wrongly typed? I will have a look, thanks!

Does anyone have any opinions on the dresses linked to? Pretty please?

I would say probably the 2nd one, suspect the long one will drown you and the swingy one looks very short!

Sorry yes mamas and papas!
