That's why necks are made to swivel! Whoever doesn't like the way your butt looks can look elsewhere! Go, wear the dress and have fun!

Hey...you can't see your butt. Who cares? You are pregnant, and did you know that many people think that's when women are actually the most beautiful?

The only thing I want to say is that I would worry more about the shoes than the dress. My husband and I were flown to Palm Springs for a business wing ding. I was pregnant and so worried about my figure in a dress.
Guess what? I didn't plan on my feet swelling so much in the heat that I wasn't used to, it was winter where we lived, and we ended up on a mission to find ANYTHING I could fit my feet into.
If you have an awesome dress, ROCK IT!!!!!

Like I said, you won't be looking at the back of you and frankly, neither will anyone else. Unless you'll look sexier from the back than you're giving yourself credit for. :)

Go, have a great time, get lots of pictures.

Best wishes!

I had the same problem. I got one of those cute cardigans that was a little lacey or meshy... I was still comfortable all of the time, but had a little something there to hide my 'junk in the trunk.' Wear it !:)

I say wear it! You are pregnant...people are going to see that and not really care about how big your butt is :-) besides, if your husband likes it or thinks it's ok, that should be all that matters. :-) Just have a good time!

Only walk forwards...or backwards out of the room...or stay up against the wall...or make your hubby stay behind you! I'm just kidding :)

S., your pregnant...you are supposed to be big...I say wear it if its comfortable. I am sure you will look great...everyone knows that we woman are way more critical of ourselves than anyone else could ever be!

Try to have fun and forget about your butt!

I'm taking a different route here. I think if you don't feel comfortable in it when you try it on (in your own home, with no one there) you will feel even more uncomfortable in front of a bunch of people. I'm sure you look beautiful, but do you feel beautiful?

I just had to go to a fancy dinner with my husband and his bosses. I bought a dress that hit right at the knee. Being 8 months pregnant I looked GIGANTIC from the sides and back. My hubby said "no you look great". I didn't feel great so I went to old navy and got a maxi dress. Since it went to the ankle it was much more flattering. The shorter dresses look huge from the belly down. Let's face it, they just do!

I would just make sure you feel your best or you will be miserable. You will sit there thinking about how "wide" your butt looks.

Good luck!

People will be far more interested in looking at your burgeoning belly than at your backside. Wear what is comfortable, enjoy your beautiful pregnancy glow and try not to upstage the bride!
