I am one very happy b2b :) I have just found out I am pregnant, but I am also about 10 wks.
I am wondering when I should start looking for a dress. I am already a BIG b2b and am worried about finding the one!. If I leave it till after baby is born I will have baby fat on top to try and find a dress with, but if I buy now would it need to much altering?
I am soooo confused. I get married in June 2014 but know it takes 9/10 months for a dress for me to be made (I have asked in quite a few shops).
Every body keeps telling me to wait as I might lose more weight in the mean time ( I have lost 5stone in the last 3 yrs) , but how can that happen if I'm pregnant.
Sorry for going on, as you can tell this is something that is really playing on my mind.

are you having a custom made dress then? as mine only took 16 weeks to arrive...if you order your dress just after you have given birth it gives you time to lose weight before the big day - remember dresses can go out and in so you neednt put too much pressure on yourself x

Unless you're one of those lucky people who goes straight back to normal weight you need to make sure the dress can be taken in without ruining the design because you're likely to lose more (wishful thinking on my part - I chose a dress at 8 weeks pp and haven't lost any more 4 months later!). If you don't have to order until 9 months before leave it until then unless you've picked 'the dress' and it might be discontinued before then x
