Alterations to a bridesmaids dress...NTR

So I am going to be 35 weeks pregnant in a bridesmaids dress. Due to this fact, we ordered the dress bigger and it will really work out in most places BUT the chest area. I am a very flat chested person, so in a dress that is even my size, this is an issue. I tried the dress on today and OMG the chest area is like...unbelievable large! Anyone else have to alter a dress and have this problem?! Is it even going to be possible? Slightly freaking, thanks :)

    A good seamstress can be wonders.

    I'd take it to the seamstress. They most likely can do something. It's easier to take in than let out.

    I was in a wedding at 39 weeks with my oldest son. I think the lady at the briday shop thought I was going to become a whale and ordered a gigantic dress when I went for alterations a week before the wedding I could have fit 2 of me in the dress. They were able to make the dress look awesome with a whole lotta cutting and basicly re making the dress. You should be just fine but I would reccomend taking it to a bridal shop for the alterations.

    For my wedding, I had a Junior Bridesmaid who was only 10 at the time.  As I wanted all of the dresses to be the same, I ordered hers in the smallest size, which fit quite well everywhere except the chest, which could have accommodated another Bridesmaid in it.  Needless to say, I was quite nervous, but the seamstress proved that there was absolutely nothing to worry about, as she was able to alter and adjust to fit her perfectly.
