I'm attending a wedding in South Africa in October (spring time) and will be about 20 weeks pregnant with #2.
I have no idea what size I'll be Confused
I'm normally a size 8, 5'8", pale.
Please help with dress suggestions.

Well I was an 8 before pregnancy and I'm now a 14! Dc3 though.
I'm the size now that I was in the 2 months after birth for both DC's

Do you have any clothes you wore in the months after dc1 was born?
Alternatively try a nice dress from Isabella Oliver size 8(great deals on eBay) something stretchy which is their specialty and it will fit fine.

Im 20 weeks btw hence the comparison!

Thank you for replying.

I didn't wear anything wedding-nice in the months after ds Grin

I'll have to get looking for a floaty dress and hope my boobs don't inflate to the size of two cows' heads again!! I'm worried that there'll be nothing Spring/summery in the shops if I leave it too long.

I'll have a look at the Isabella Oliver recommendation. Thank you

There's some lovely dresses on Isabella Oliver and there's a sale on.
How have I only just heard of this!?!

Yes and they are stretchy, so look good at the in between stage when the bump's not huge, as well as at the enormous stage.

Seraphine also have some lovely dresses
