i love the third one. However I had a dress like that and tried it on for my bday when I was 3 1/2 months and it was SO uncomfortable. I would stick to an A line dress they are the best fitting for a woman who is pregnant or could be!

The first one. If you are not pregnant by then it will still look great, and if you are people will realize you are pregnant and not just chubby, because the empire neckline will make that more clear than the fabric around the waist of the other dress. That will just look confusing if you are pregnant, and it will draw attention and emphasize your belly, which you do not want to do in most cases, but especially at another person's wedding.
Dont get me wrong, Im not against pregnant bridesmaids and I think those who are are selfish, but with that said I think it would be wise and proper to pick dress that flatters your situation rather than flaunting it, because being a pregnant bridesmaid is lovely, but drawing attention to the pregnant belly by the alter rather than the bride IS rude.
EDIT: I really love the third dress, it is just lovely and it still has the empire waistline so I think it would be great. However, it looks pretty tight around the middle so think about whether or not it will work, why dont you go and try it on and see how it fits your body, if there is any give, etc. Then you can order it a size bigger and alter it closer to the wedding. It depends on your breast size too, and that too will change....but out of the three this is my favorite and I think it will work nicely for your situation. Good luck!

Are concerned about showing? Do you want to or not? If you are not trying to show, kmoney 83 had the right idea with this dress. http://www.alfredangelo.com/Collections/ProductDisplay.aspx?productID=029ac140-7753-4de0-a86f-831b7f3488ee&categoryID=772f03c9-de43-4942-bfa0-da77e21ebd65&pg=0
If you are happy about the pregnancy i think you shouldn't worry about the dress. Just get one thats comfortable. I barely showed when i was 4 months. Get something that is not too clingy and probably A line is the best. I like the last dress. but i would probably say the first one cause it is more forgiving.
that one will give you less to worry about as far as showing.

The blue empire waisted dress would be the best choice. The other two choices, while very pretty, will show everything. First- they are satin-satin clings! Second-they do not flow away from the body which is something you will need desperately.
I think there may be better choices out there. Look for something with an empire waist, nice detailing to emphasize the waistline, and look for a material with perhaps a chiffon overlay as this will also help de-emphasize your baby belly.
From experience, I was married in August, I was standing up in a wedding in September. I was already pregnant by my last fitting for the bridesmaid dress. I bought my wedding dress and the dress for the other wedding from the same bridal salon. I had to have the bust let out on the bridesmaid dress to accommadate my already swelling chest. Whatever option you go with select a size large enough to be taken in if you do not get pregnant and to be let out if you are pregnant. Also, if they offer it-buy the unlimited alterations. You never know what you will need.

I like the last one best. Since you are not yet preggers I would say that even on the chance you are at most 4 months along you will likely not show at all yet. I had a bridesmaid that was about 4 months pregnant and you couldn’t even tell, my other bridesmaid was 6 months along and we just ordered her dress a couple sizes large and had it tailored to fit. I didn’t pick out a special dress just because they were pregnant, they looked fine in the dress that everyone else wore. I like these as well:

The first one is beautiful all over but the stripes are way tooo simple - and it's what going to show in the portrait pictures... that's why I prefer the second. Other than this point, they are both equally beautiful and suitable for someone pregnant. By the way, you'll choose from the different colors, right? Coz I don't like the blue and orange... I'd go for something a lot softer like pink or off white. Congrats.
If you want to hid the tummy, choose a darker color like Berry or Espresso.
I also love the dusty rose color, teal, and mocha.
Edit:
The third one is soooo cute but it won't hide your tummy. The first is the best to hide your tummy.

Out of those three, I think the first one would work best for someone who is pregnant. Which kinda sucks because the other two are cuter. Can you pick any dress you want? Because I'm sure there are better choices.
I used this dress for my maids (I had some bigger girls and little girls and it looked really good on all of them.)

Your pregnant bridesmaid will need to order extra fabric with all of these dresses. About a month before the wedding, she will visit the seamstress and the extra fabric will be used to make the dress fit her baby bump, depending on how large she has gotten. If you're hoping to hide the bump, then your best bet, of these selected, is the blue one. Most definately not the pink one. But there is no point in hiding it, really.
ETA: I misread your question. If you're hoping to become pregnant, pick the blue dress. It will be easiest and cheapest to work with. Steer clear of the pink and orange.

if you are the slender type, your bump will show great in the orange dress, but if not, you will look like an Easter egg. the blue, will be better for any body type, but try to get a shawl over your shoulders, to hide the fat pockets, that you will get by that time, on your triceps, near the armpits and hide the fat that will bulge over the dress in the back. Remember, do not hide the belly, hide the stuff that comes with it. or at least make them have a nice aesthetic.

The last one (rose) doesn't look as it it would accommodate much of a tummy, and I'm not sure about the orange one, either. The first one (blue) seems the best bet that way. On the other hand, since you're HOPING to become pregnant, you could choose the last one and trust the perversity of fate to make you unable to wear it. And you just might be pregnant and still slim enough to wear the dress! In that case, you get two pieces of wedding cake--one to keep and one to eat. : )
