    I would be a bit careful about buying t now to be honest hun !!
    You could balloon overnight and it wouldnt fit :o Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
    But on the other hand, the dress is beautiful :)

    I know thanks MM thats what im cautious about luckily ive been keeping fit throughout so legs, arms etc are ok just boobs might be tighter and obviously my bump, thinking 12 because it will give me some breathing space..

    Right, need some advice got a wedding Aug and like this dress http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10001_60891_1059874_-1

    But unsure of what size to get 10 or 12 im usually a 8/10 havent put much weight on really just a bump.. umm what do you think. Have looked for maternity ones but hate them all and dont want to spend much x


    Can only comment that thats a lovely dress nancat. Wouldn't like to say really. If it were me, pre-pregnancy 8, i'd go for the 10. But not sure for anyone else. Also if you look on littlewoods, there is a really nice coral maxi dress on there, in the maternity section. This one. They have it in a size 8. Maybe not quite as pretty as the one from principles, but i keep longing after it and don't really have any need to buy it, only a want. If you get what i mean.

    Lol Sami its strange how guilty we feel about silly things isnt it :-)

    Hi Jenny If your really worried why dont you phone back and ask if the GP can call you himself after surgery.

    Oh no well dressed people in suits are knocking on doors handing out leaflets that can only mean one thing!! do i hide or tell them where to go hmmphhhhh
    ooh open the door and tell them to get a job! (asuming we're talking JW's)

    nancat - I'd say a 10 because other wise it will be way to big on ur bust/shoulders but prob best if you could go try on...
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Hi everyone, have been lurking all day, now i finally got the chance to post :)

    Told my boss i was pregnant today as there is going to be a whole move around with shifts and at the moment me and OH are on the same shifts and i dont want that changed.

    He was so lovely about it, he congratulated me and told me all of my rights, im now allowed to eat at my desk and take more breaks :D

    And to think i was so nervous about telling him. Im glad im on his deptartment now, he is much nicer than my old boss. :)

    Im 5+1 now, it seems to be going quite quick, which im glad about.
    I called the midwife today as i picked up a leaflet in boots saying "start your anti natal care early by contact the midwife direct"
    So i did that and they said i have to do it the usual way and wait lol. I felt a bit silly :rotfl:
    Hope your all having a nice afternoon, its very hot :(

    I probably wouldn't buy the dress - my pre-pregnant size 8 backside is now spilling over a 12 pair of underpants and is so unfeasibly enormous that people feel obliged to comment on it.

    You don't know where you'll gain, and you'll be 7 months by the date of the wedding.

    Another reason, i've been holding off, buying it. I'm only 5ft 1. lol.

    Nice warehouse dress also. I seem to have aquired a dress fetish during pregnancy, before it was, jeans, jeans and a few more pairs of jeans. Maybe this heat also.

    Have you looked on asos, there is a sale on at the moment, but can't remember if they have anything suitable for a wedding. Am not looking, am not looking! as my hand very nearly slipped over the checkout button for two dresses earlier. Note to self. Must leave Maestro card at home, out of harms reach.

    Busy at work today? Me? No too hot to be bothered.:p
