Another Christening Gown question...

Sorry for all of these questions.

The only dress I've found online that I really love only comes up to size 9 months. I emailed the company asking if they can order it in larger sizes and they said it is not available. Emily wears size 12 months now and sometimes 18 months, although I still put her in some of her 9 month PJs and they work just fine.

The woman online said that if her chest is 20" or less the 9 mos will fit her. She has an 18" chest -- and weighs probably about 21-22 lbs -- the dress size is 18-21 lbs.

Should I order the dress? Her christening is on July 9th and I don't want to risk not having anything by then if it doesn't fit. Or should I just keep looking to see if I find something in the stores that I love. I love love love the simplicity of the dress online and it is a cotton knit and I haven't seen that ANYWHERE! It is only $78 also for the dress, bonnet, blanket and matching sweater.

I would get it ....the material stretches and it is not like it wont fit in the legs...since its a dress and she falls in the "under 20" category

This gown looks to be to be best for Fall/Winter. I would go with a lighter weight fabric for a July date.
