I know this is a PPD forum, but its the only post pregnancy forum i could find :) Ok here is the deal, i have a wedding to attend (as a bridesmaid) may 20 2006, and i am due on february 14, Last week i went for a dress firring, with my big tummy and i am currently a US size 12, I was an 8 pre pregnancy, but my boobs and tummy have grown a bit. What size do you ladys think i should get? I dont want to pay 200 bucks for a dress that i am going to look bad in. Will my uterus be back to normal by that time? Thats my only issue, i am pretty sure that i can powerlose the weight and get doen to the size 10 area before the wedding, but i dont know about my uterine size, OR my boobies :) I am going th brest feed, and its my frist baby. Any help appreciated! Thanks!

Hi,
I had my baby 3 months ago and have about 10 lbs left to lose... That said, my breasts are bigger now than when I was pregnant. If you're breastfeeding I think your uturus will be pretty close to normal (mine is). But I would budget at least one size up in both cup size and in inches around and maybe I'd even up the cup size a little more than that. Of course I'm going off of my own experience and everyone's different... so. Good luck with the dress fitting!

I would probably go a size or two bigger so that way if it is too big you can get it altered, as opposed to it being too small and not being able to do anything about it.
