what am I supposed to wear????
Well to recap for those just tuning in I have been suffering from moderate/severe OHSS and look like I am 7 months pregnant (no exaggeration necessary) I have a family party tomorrow (backyard party) and I have no idea what to wear. I can NOT even begin to hide this belly. I am only just about 7 weeks pregnant (with twins) and after suffering such a huge loss earlier this year we really really didn't want to tell anyone we were expecting again just yet. 
I got a cute shirt from motherhood but it is VERY obviously a maternity shirt
Please help me keep my secret!!!

Re: what am I supposed to wear????
This is exactly why I did not attend a family wedding a few weeks back... and why I missed the first day of school. At that point, i was not sure what was going to happen with my pregnancy and just didn't want people to assume anything. Over the last year I have lost 85 pounds and was so thrilled to wear this new dress I bought in the smallest size I've ever worn. I just couldn't bring myself to go.
I hope you find something you feel comfortable in!

Re: what am I supposed to wear????
I know that for me to hide my belly (AF time) I try to wear something that diverts the eyes by wearing a blazer or cartigan that seperates top from bottom so they are either looking up at my chest or at my legs. It works pretty well especially when I feel like if you took a pin to me I would pop being so bloated.
Or you could tell them that you are just bloated
Good luck

Re: what am I supposed to wear????
what about those high-waisted dresses that are tight around the rib cage and puff out just before the waste? my friend got a couple from express, and they sure look like they'd do a good job of hiding a belly.
ETA: tried posting pics, but no luck...

Re: what am I supposed to wear????
i'd suggest one of those trendy scarves or a pashmina around your neck...takes attention away from the belly and hangs in front of it. you may not be able to escape the questions and looks though, so be prepared with a response! good luck!
