My dress is too tight

I just had my first dress fitting. My ( tight ass mermaid) dress is way too tight, it came up over my butt (barely) but it won't fasten in the back at all. I had a baby a few weeks ago, so I'm still up 20 lbs from where I used to be, and because we're 3 months out time is limited. I'm freaking out....

The attendant mentioned adding gussets, does anyone know how much this alters the dress and how labor intensive they are? She said they're expensive to do and I'm trying to keep the damage down. Also, if anyone knows about any diet and excercise regimens that are safe for nursing moms that'd be great too.

    Don't try to adjust your calorie intake on your own. Since you are a nursing mother (congrats!!) your body is still geared towards feeding your child and healing itself. If you drastically change what you do it could cause adverse effects. Just consult a doctor and tell them your goal and make sure they know you are nursing and they will be able to give you a good diet and workout plan that's catered to you specifically. And try not to stress about it too much!! It'll all work out in the end
