5-6 months pregnant, how many sizes up?

Question

First time mama here and I'm trying to plan in advance. I just found out I'm pregnant (Yay me) and have no clue what to expect for the baby bump so I need your help!
I have two weddings where I'm a bridesmaid this summer. They are at the 5 and 6 month mark. I found a dress I absolutely love and it's such a good deal that I cannot let it go, but I don't know how many sizes up from my regular sizing I should purchase! I have flexibility closer to the wedding dates in the sense that I can wear it to either wedding (both the same color dress). At 5 or 6 months pregnant, how big was the bump?! 
I know everyone will develop different Ly,, but if this information helps, I'm tall and lean normally. I'm fit and in shape, but not a crazy amount (ie. You cant visibly see a 6 pack on me). What do you think? 1 or 2 sizes up?

Answer

I never went a size up (33+3 today). Only the bump grew, but my size os the same. In month 5 my bump started to grow.
I'd recommend you to wait, sorry. Or get a convertible wrap dress.

Answer

I’d go for a wrap dress with stretchy fabric. My size is close to pre-pregnancy at 6 months with just a little extra fluff. You want to give yourself room just in case. Also a good idea to wait till closer to the date to buy/ try.

Answer

It really depends on the style of the dress. I didn’t really have a bump at 5 months and barely had one at 6. I think just one size up is fine and then just get it tailored shortly before the wedding if needed

Answer

I was a bridesmaid at 5.5 months pregnant. Ordered 1 size up and was fine. Didn’t even really need the entire whole size up, but I was definitely more comfortable and it looked more flattering on my bump.

Answer

Was a size 4 before i was pregnant and now I’m 5 months and about a size 8, bump is still tiny so i’m sure that with go up soon. But if i wear jeans it’s maternity jeans

Answer

My bump is considered small at 6.5 months and it didn’t appear until 24 weeks, but I don’t fit in any of my clothes from before.

Answer

Just go way up and have it tailored close to the event...

Answer

Normally I'm M or L. All my maternity clothes are S. I still fit into all of them, and I'm 39w5d. 
I found maternity clothes way looser than the regular ones, and I didn't gain anywhere except the bump. But every pregnancy is different 🤷‍♀️

Answer

I would probably just a cute maternity dress 🤷‍♀️. One less thing to stress about

Answer

Maybe look at a maternity dress, or a stretchy dress. I havent gone any sizes up and I'm 27 weeks pregnant, but I do need to wear stretchier clothing.
