What size are you?

h and m do some affordable maternity clothes designed by someone who seems to know what a pregnant woman may want to wear. (well they did last year anyway!)

good luck and have a good xmas do!

Has to be something can order on-line really as no time for shopping and somewhat lacking in full ranges of clothes here (in Jersey).

Am size 14 normally. So 14 in maternity wear, and God knows what in normal clothes. Probably a 16. Hopefully.

I got this dress when I was about the same pregnant as you for a party and it looked fab

LedodgyChristmasjumper · 07/12/2007 09:35

You could wear it over your black jeans or with boot or nice shoes.

SantasGotABigFatEllieG · 07/12/2007 09:35

Oooo! I like that! It's got pretty sleeves too.

I got so many compliment when wearing it it emohaises your bump and flatters everthing else! I'd let you have mine but it's a size 18.

sorry i've been eating a croissant at my laptop and keys are sticking!

SantasGotABigFatEllieG · 07/12/2007 09:39

You are sweet. Am very excited by the look of this dress as looks like could be dressed up or down depending too, and might be able to wear to work.
Think a spot of shopping is on the cards tonight. Damn work firewalls preventing me from spending money during the day.

It is the best maternity dress i've come across like you said it can be dressed up or down and it really is flattering. A reasonable price too especially for mamas and papas.
