Looking stylish in pregnancy?

I’m living in Seraphine dresses and leggings with ankle boots. I have a Seasalt maternity coat.

How does the Duchess of Cambridge look so glamorous in pregnancy?

She's ridiculously slim and beautiful. That helps her Grin! Mere mortals are always going to struggle when comparing oneself to her.

How far along are you? What's your height and weight?

I always felt I looked at my best with a plain white shirt and nice trousers or jeans. I am almost 5 wks with dc3 and hoping this one sticks. Not office based anymore like i was for 1st 2 dcs and not a size 8/10 anymore unfortunately! Think I'll concentrate on plain tops, a good coat, jumpers and cardigan and a couple of great pairs of jeans.

20 weeks. 5’7 and a size 12. I just feel kind of dumpy!

Best wishes to you kmini.

Oh no, don't look at stuff like this! Yes she always looks stunning, but she's got some serious resources behind her to do it. And some impressive natural advantages that most of us don't have (speaking for myself at least!). I'm 14w, and getting lots of leggings and loose jumper dresses that will do me for at least a few months. Still struggling with coat ideas, but might just go with a loose style like this one:

Money. And a team of staff.

I had a vision of myself being pregnant, going to work on the Tube with my baby on board badge, wearing a swishy coat and heels. I’ve been signed off work for HG for weeks and have spent most of my pregnancy so far either in hospital or in bed.

I’m wearing dresses like this www.seraphine.com/en-gb/navy-blue-maternity-shirt-dress/?gclid=CjwKCAiAtej9BRAvEiwA0UAWXhTY3bt9XdyC8WMkrNxpGMrSnHgXc323n8QbcbeMWfpDvB_3lIDVahoCx4IQAvD_BwE and this is my coat
