Help - Wedding at 16 Weeks! What to wear?!

Question

My best friend is getting married in November and I'll be about 16 weeks when the wedding comes. I'm trying to figure out my dress, but struggling to know if I will need a maternity dress or maybe just size up a size from my non-pregnant size. This is my first baby, so I don't think I'll be showing too too much by them. I'm a petite figure though, so I just don't know. Any advice??

Answer

It’s so hard to tell because everyone is so different, I was still in my regular clothes at that point... I went to a wedding at 18 weeks and wore a dress I already had ... so suggest waiting until you are a little closer or get one with some stretch incase you have a little belly.

Answer

I loved this dress! I was 17 weeks and wore this for my husbands military ball

I got it at forever 21 for less than $20!

Answer

If it's stretchy or A-line you can wear a regular dress, no need to go up a size if you're not gaining elsewhere. But they also have maternity dresses that aren't too maternity, check out pinkblushmaternity.com unless you get their fitted dress (which is fine if you're ready to show off your bump!) their dresses are roomier in the belly.

Answer

It's depends! I'd wait as late as possible to get a dress to see how much your body has actually changed. Some people show really early & some won't show until late! I'm 17 weeks now & I look just the same with clothes on. Without clothes you can kinda see a bump but when I'm wearing my normal clothes it's not visible at all! I have tried really hard not to buy any clothes because I don't know when/if I'll need any. 
If you wait you'll get a better idea & you could always go to a couple stores & see which dresses you like best! (Maternity or a normal dress in a bigger size) 😊

Answer

I'd say buy the dress a few days before (: when I was 17 I was only a little bit bloated
