Please dress this preggo! w/ pics and poll

I will be 8 weeks pregnant on Saturday. I have a very tiny pouch (more like pms bloat) right now.

I have a Sat night wedding at a very formal place next week (however I was surprised that the invite did not mention black tie or black tie optional). I also have another wedding 1 month from now on a Friday night (I will be 12 weeks).

I want to get a dress that I can potentially wear both occasions. I was thinking of ordering one of these in a larger size... What do you think? And which do you think would be most accommodating to my growing belly?

Thanks in advance!

Ilike 1 the best but voted for 5 - I preferred to wear bras with straps when pregnant.

I'd skip #2 b/c you can't wear a bra - but if you don't have to worry about that, any of them will work

I like number 1 the best (as I have the 2 other times it's been posted on here by non-preggo people, lol) but I think number 4 is a definite NO. That's not a true empire and it might be uncomfortable when you're 12 weeks. The rest of them will all give you room to breathe and you probably won't look pregnant in any of them!

You may not even need a larger size since none of them are tight at the waist. But then again, it depends on how quickly your boobs grow. I didn't go up in size until late in my 2nd trimester..

I think your best bet is #1. The others have that band that may restrict your growing belly and you dont want that. #1 is pretty and looks comfy tooChat Icon

i'd say 1 or 5. the higher waistline would be more flattering. they're all beautiful dresses though!

I would go with 5 since you are pregnant, looks like it will have support with the straps and looks to be chiffon which should drape nice over an expanding belly.....I do LOVE #2 though, gorgeous dres and color!

#1 is your best bet if you want to use at 12 weeks. Usually the belly will grow from under your boobs not just the bottom belly part.
