2 bridemsaids that are pregnant

I have two bridesmaids that are pregnant, one is due in April and the other in May.  My wedding is in June.  I haven't found a bridemaid dress yet, but now I am really confused on what to do.  What I had pictured in my head for the girls to wear might not work out with them after all.  I have 5 bridemaids total.  Any ideas?

    I don't know what you want to spend or what you wanted the dresses to look like, but Davids Bridal style #83312 is flattering on all sizes and shapes.

    I was just in a wedding at 5 months pregnant.  There was another girl who was 7 months pregnant.  We wore this dress and it was flattering on everyone - (the one on the left.  It's Impressions 1757


    And for my wedding, 2 of my bridesmaids were pregnant.  They wore Ann Taylor Celebrations dresses.

    Do they have to wear the same dress? You could give them a designer/color and let them pick the style. In general an empire waist that is a-line would be best. 

    I used Siri and everyone raved about the dresses:

    However, J.Crew has some affordable options too:

    Also check Alfred Angelo,  some of the dresses come in maternity as well! Another idea would to pick a color and a designer, I am sure most designers make BM dresses for pregnant BM'S. Just a thought!

    But wait...they won't need maternity right...one of my bridemaids is pregnant now but will have plenty of time to order the dress after she gives birth.  I would talk to someone at the bridal store

    Check out Aria Bridesmaid dresses (I think that is what it is called) they are a bit pricy, but they have maternity styles to match non-maternity dresses and I think they provide extra fabic incase the dress needs to be altered closer to the wedding date (my cousins used this for her wedding and 2 of the bridesmaids were quite pregnant)

    also, you could always order extra material and have a seamstress  alter the dress, now a days most "maternity" dresses are not those empire waist dresses. most people are fine with the "bump" showing.
