Tell me what you really think....

emilie5 · May 2012

I still have people that think I am pregnant (I have a 21 month old) because of my mommy pooch. I have had trouble losing it because she split my stomach muscles, which I went to PT for, and had a hernia opperation, yes all because of her. I figured that you all would give me an honest opinion. Do I look fat or slightly pregnant?

1st pic: not at all

2nd pic: maybe. what kind of shapewear are you wearing in that pic?

QueeefSniffer · May 2012

I wouldn't think fat or slightly pregnant of either of those pictures.

2watty KockleWang69 · May 2012

I'd hit it.

In all honesty in the first one you definitely don't. It's hard to tell in the second because of your arm placement. Ditto Anna on the shapewear.

The first picture looks great. The second one isn't bad, but if you're feeling self-conscious, get some super dooper shapewear.

Has your dress been altered yet? It looks like it is not fitting too great on top in the second pic. So alterations could be of help is what I am saying.

emilie5 · May 2012

I did not have altarations yet here is another side view pic

In that 3rd picture I don't think you look even a little pregnant. Make sure to throw those shoulders back on the day of though girl! Posture fixes innumerable body issues.

CliittorisGlitterus · May 2012

Also your dress is REALLY pretty!

caulknballs · May 2012

In the updated picture you don't look pregnant at all.

I agree - work those shoulders, girl! I think that's why high heels were invented. They alter the way you stand. That's why every cover model for Cosmo magazine wears heels even though they never show them.

Queen KuntKweef III · May 2012

I think you look fine!

2watty KockleWang69 · May 2012

3rd pic = smokin'!

Lol, love the dress! You don't look one bit preggers so you're good

futuremrsbruno · May 2012

I think it's the undergarments. You said you are wearing a corset bra? Are you going to be wearing an underskirt? the corset may not be positioned properly.

Also, the dress hasn't had alterations, so when you go, they will tug and pull and basically put it in the right place so you look as amazing as you ever have! It's the coolest thing to watch your body pretty much transform as they alter your dress.

I don't think you look pregnant in any pic. It's the way the dress is laying on you and the way the undergarments are that's giving you that look.

Girlie1030 · May 2012

I'll just ditto what others have said. Posture, shapewear, alterations, etc...

It's a gorgeous dress and you rock it. Please come back and AW your wedding pics!

LetsHikeToday · May 2012

I love your dress! It's beautiful and you look great in it!

megsch88 · May 2012

Beautiful! Third pic was really great!

Fluffernut · May 2012

I don't think you look pregnant in the photos. Ditto PP on photo 2, with the arm placement it's hard to tell, but photo 3 not at all. If you have a bouquet, that will hide sensitive areas too, but I would not think pregnant.

erbear84 · May 2012

Honestly, I love your dress and can't wait to see it after alterations!

Lizzieyounce · May 2012

Like the PP' said....the dress is beautiful.

Spanx rock and alterations are miraculous!

You look great...speaking as a 45 year old mother of 2, I LOVE my curves and FI loves me all fluffy (I'm 5'7 and weigh about 160), so rock those curves!

Congrats on the baby and wedding. I can't wait to see pics!
