Oh what a dilemma!
Ooooh, dress number one is my favorite!! You know, shopping is always fun - even when you're not feeling well, so maybe it would just be best to wait.
On the other hand, there are lots of good tailors out there, not just your mom-in-law, so if you find a dress now that you love then I'm sure you could find someone to help you get it to fit right. Also, a good way to think of cup sizes is like an inch for every letter - so going to a C from an A is only a difference of about two inches. However, since you will be swollen and wearing a binder, I would say to allow for about three more inches around your bust.

I would say that due to your cir****tances, skip the risk of ebay and plan on shopping the day or two before the wedding. That is the only way to really be sure.

Currently pregnant! Due November 27th, 2009!
OK, I've got no boobies....so I can't help you in that aspect (plus I'm pre op). But I absolutely love dress #1!!!!! If the girls are swollen, this dress will emphasize the boobies........so girls, dress & you will look great! BUT, someone mentioned a surgery bra. I have no knowledge on PS, but if there is a special bra that has to be worn at that point.....then I do like #2. It is beautiful, and it will cover up a bra!
Sorry, just had to post my vote for a dress!! But over all, any of the dresses I'm sure would look great on you!
