I actually found a solution Iโm planning to make a post about very soon! It allowed me to carry comfortably in late pregnancy and will allow me to keep wearing dresses and skirts afterwards.
So when it comes to skirts and dresses, most of the fashion incompatibility you mentioned would be solved by wearing flowy skirts / dresses with a flowy skirt and a thigh holster underneath. As long as possible and flowy below the waist happens to be my style in skirts and dresses anyway. Itโs just the thigh holsters I was finding were inadequate.
Stay tuned for what I ended up doing!
