Also, this outfit is way more awesome than the original. Love it. Oh, and no, you don't look pregnant at ALL in this one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581638 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 07:17:34 +0000 shopaholic 581638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agreed with PP - the dress shape and pattern are distracting from any idea of a baby bump! Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581634 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 07:14:37 +0000 Mrs squirreld 581634@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: oooh we are rebels ;-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581632 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 07:09:22 +0000 Cherrybee 581632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs squirreld: Its more likely an England thing - its seen as quite rude here, although I've done it myself to be honest! My bridesmaids even wore black! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581604 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 06:20:52 +0000 Mrs squirreld 581604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cherrybee: no black for a wedding??? Lol the majority of people I know where some part of their out fit as black! Maybe it's just an Australia thing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581592 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 04:55:58 +0000 Cherrybee 581592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love, love, love the skirt! Not sure about black for a wedding though...... But you're right there is no bump in sight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581528 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 01:30:47 +0000 Mrs squirreld 581528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Plus I can wear this skirt through pregnancy cause it stretchy, floaty and so nice. Thoughts? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant/page/2#post-581527 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 01:29:47 +0000 Mrs squirreld 581527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok so don't hate me... Lol but after all that I changed my outfit... It isn't forcast to be as hot and I just didn't feel 100% comfortable in that dress... I felt like it was creating more of a bump than there was... So I'm now thinking Ill wear this. I feel a lot more comfortable and don't think I can see a bump at all. </p> [attach=2518/13/mik4po.289x600.image.jpg] [attach=2518/13/mik4pp.263x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578762 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:44:13 +0000 Revel 578762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's tough to say without knowing what you looked like before pregnancy, but the dress looks great, and I think the pattern is a good choice for hiding an early bump! As a stranger, I certainly wouldn't ask you if you were pregnant based on the picture. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578671 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:18:59 +0000 Crisark 578671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't see pregnant at all. Dress is just busy enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578670 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:18:33 +0000 Turd Ferguson 578670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can totally get by with not looking pregnant. Yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578639 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:09:34 +0000 littlek 578639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578623 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:05:29 +0000 Grace 578623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no, you are fine. BUT, I finally told everyone last week (at 13 weeks) and asked if anyone was suspicious. The people that had been waiting and watching could see a bump (which was chub, not the bump at all, but that's another story). So what I'm saying is that the people in baby-watch mode will imagine a bump, no matter what, but the people who aren't, won't be able to tell. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578603 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:00:23 +0000 sorrycharlie 578603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you'll be fine. I also agree with the PPs that said no one in their right mind should ask! If they do, you'll actually be in the 'winning' side of it because you can embarrass them by saying something along the lines of not being pregnant. then they will feel badly for asking :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578580 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 08:49:37 +0000 kjpugs 578580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You look amazing!

I don't think anyone will notice or say anything. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578478 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:57:58 +0000 NerdBee 578478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Looks great! Can't tell that you have a bump at all. If you want to hide behind something, maybe you could carry a large clutch? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578462 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:52:00 +0000 Smurfette 578462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The pattern is hiding any bloat/bump. You should be fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578460 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:51:24 +0000 JoJoGirl 578460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no way! the fabric and the pattern totally cover it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578458 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:50:55 +0000 mediagirl 578458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Perfect dress for hiding a bump!

I think that dress is a great choice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578443 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:42:53 +0000 Mrs squirreld 578443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>awww thanks everyone.. i was kind of dreading coming back to this thread to see the responses, but feel much happier now. I'm taking this nothing fits but I don't look pregnant yet thing really hard and this wedding is just an awkward time we probably would have told extended family by now but I didn't want to steal the brides thunder so we decided to wait the full twelve weeks... I'll see if I can find a before pregnant pic, but not sure i have a side on one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578438 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:41:37 +0000 T.H.O.U. 578438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think any one in their right mind would say something about you being pregnant. If they did say something, I think you could totally lie and just say, yea I've been eating a few too many doughnuts or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578431 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:33:39 +0000 mlm2934 578431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's hard to tell what belly you have going on because of the dress pattern so I totally think you are in the clear! :)</p> <p>are you waiting til 12 weeks to tell? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578428 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:32:46 +0000 Dandelion 578428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Doesn't look obvious at all...like others said, your dress is busy enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578422 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 07:30:07 +0000 heffalump 578422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can we see a pre pregnancy picture to compare? I would say no way do you look pregnant, but I don't know what you looked like before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-do-i-look-pregnant#post-578381 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 06:42:13 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 578381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No you don't look pregnant and you do not need Spanx.
