shower dresses - question for those who already bought theirs

Did you buy a maternity dress or did you get a regular non-maternity dress in a stretchy material or larger size??

I'm not in love with many maternity dresses but I'm afraid by 30 weeks I wont fit in non-maternity dresses.

And can you post a pic of the dress you go and where you got it from?

i really don't want to do a dress for the shower... there will be a lot of opening of LARGER boxes...and in a dress - there's really no way to do that gracefully....

i'm also NOT very comfy in dresses...so there's that!

just something to think about sweety!

Just a warning earlier in my pregnancy I bought a bunch of regular dresses in a bigger size. I put one on yesterday (35 weeks) & it did not look right at all! My maternity dresses still look fine though.

I don't think i would be caught dead in a dress right now, much less in another month and a half. My ankles(and the rest of my legs) are swollen to over twice their size....Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
