ETA: What is the bottom fabric? Satin, or something else? I can't tell.
The royal blue color. Which I do like. The material is a mesh over some type of stretchy fabric.
I think you will be totally fine. I wore normal stretchy dresses for my entire pregnancy last time. Well, at least into my eighth month. I actually preferred them over maternity dresses.

That is beautiful peanutmuse! That pregnant reviewer looks gorgeous. I prefer that style to the one I was looking for so I'm glad I said something to you. At that point we'll be past a hopefully healthy anatomy scan so I'll be ready to show my belly off! Thanks for sharing!
Well, day did not go at all as planned. Baby boy is running a fever so I have been tending to him, while H slept til 12:30 and then left to go to work. No Indian food, no shopping
Speaking of dresses, I have to order my dress soon for my brother's wedding on October 1st. I will be 32 weeks along, and I am officiating. I want something modest but flattering without a front that attracts attention since I don't want to take away from the bride and groom. I settled on this, and tried it on and loved it, but I will have to order extra big and tailor so the waist is more empire (with my big boobs, it already is mostly empire waisted). I hope it works!
My brother is getting married the first weekend in November, like 2.5 weeks before my due date. We almost took this cycle off from TTC because of it, but in the end decided we couldn't live with giving up a chance at baby #2. It's in NJ and I won't be allowed to fly, but being in a car for 6 hours probably won't be a cakewalk either. I am going to really try not to miss it though. DS is the ringbearer too. I feel all sorts of guilty.
dashook - this was our first medicated cycle because I need to fly to my brother's wedding so even though the RE wanted to start a month earlier, we waited because of the wedding, so I completely get the mixed feelings. I still worry because any complications will mean I can't go, but I flew at that time last pregnancy and was fine. At least you're driving, and it's a super good route if you needed a hospital - there's good hospitals every hundred miles or so! And with a toddler, you'll have to get out and walk around frequently anyway. It won't be ideal, but I bet it will work fine!

DH and I are cleaning out the office. It really needed to be done because it was becoming the catch all for EVERYTHING! It's also the first room we plan to totally redo. (plus it's the proposed nursery). However we are going slow with lots of time for sunday relaxation.
DH is super antsy to tell someone I am pregnant. He really really really wants to tell his mom and stepdad tonight. I really want to tell my mom first but I am obliging because she is out of town right now, plus extenuating circumstances with his mom. I am trying to get him to pause for a second because we just bought that onesie and I wanted to use that. Oh well I guess... It will be fun to tell someone
Ugh, my H cooked a delicious dinner tonight that tasted good as it hit the lips. But I had to force down each swallow. I am recovering now on the couch as he gives DS a bath.

it is always fun to feed off someone else's new excitement! Enjoy the moment

Boo!! Sorry DS is sick! Hopefully it doesn't last too long!
I'm standing up in a wedding at the end of September, not sure how I'm going to tell the bride that I'm pregnant. She's already said that she doesn't want any "fattys" in her wedding. Part of me is hoping she kicks me out. Our friendship is such a time and energy suck and she's never been supportive of anything for me. She's turned into a major bridezilla and I'm hoping after the wedding we just lose touch with each other because I'm not a confrontational person at all. We still need to order bridesmaid dresses and the bride can't decide on one; I've been to 4 different places with her already and we're no closer to her picking one than when she started looking. Ugh, sorry for the rant. I'm sure I'll need a place to bitch as this wedding gets closer and she gets higher and higher on my bridezilla-meter.

nuggetrn it's exciting to tell people! We told our friends who live OOT last night. Apparently she is pregnant too so that was fun. H said it makes it feel more real.
And holy shit tjanca22. She really said that? How awful!
tjanca22 holy crap I cannot believe she said that!! Quit now! I don't think the friendship sounds like it is worth saving. Especially if you are already hoping it doesn't last past the wedding.
nuggetrn I'm horrible when it comes to confronting anyone, ask my H. We've been friends since high school and she's been known to say shitty things like that in the past. I usually roll my eyes and just move on. We see a lot less of each other now than a few years ago so for now it's just not a battle that I'm willing to have this year.
tjanca22 - I'd totally try to use the pregnancy to bow out. Like, appeal to her bridezilla side - "I won't be any fun at the bachelorette, I won't fit in any of the dresses. And I know you said you want skinny bridesmaids, and I am going to be a blimp. Sooo bummed but maybe it's better you pick someone else?" Boom, no more bridesmaid, no more "friend."
Great suggestions, but since I've already committed to her by saying yes I'll be in your wedding I don't want to bail, bad friend or not, UO? If she kicks me out, that's different.

Don't make it an "I quit". Do an "I totally understand if you want to pick someone else."
I'll slide that in there when I tell her in a few weeks, maybe it will work
