need to be seen in front of about a hundred people in a month's time wearing a very pretty wedding dress.

I've lost 4 stones since having DS2 8 months ago, but I've changed shape into something resembling a toffee apple and need something to squash in my baby belly.

I tried Trinny and Susannah's magic pants, they were crap and had some weird ridge around the middle which emphasised the problem. I need something hardcore, and time is of the essence.

Can anyone suggest what I can get and from where?

I got the waist cincher from Figleaves and I have to say, I am disappointed. It does sort of cinch in my waist, but does nothing for my tum. Maybe it's because I am tall? It sucks in one part of my tummy at the top a bit, but there is spillage at the bottom, which gives me an odd shape. Spanx much better.

Mrs, that's exactly what I found, it seemed to make more of a feature of my post-baby bits IYSWIM! Recommend trying out the Next one, I really am impressed.

Thanks for the recommendation. How much is it? Might sneakily buy it this weekend, although when DH looks at our joint account statements he may wonder why I have spent a fortune on shapewear!

£14! (open an account, then you don't have to pay, sort of...)
