Hpw do you feel about seeing/being the pregnant woman in a two piece swim suit?
I personally think I'm just gonna keep wearing my two piece instead of buying something. But it's also my second and I was blessed last time not to get too big so I could still fit my original swimsuits and I'm hoping the same. Our gym has an awesome kids pool so we will be swimming all winter.
Edit: I was just curious how people felt. I didn't need advice, I know my decision.
If you're comfortable then go for it! I wore a one piece this past summer because I had just had my daughter and was self conscious but if I can't fit into it, I'll wear a 2 piece! Missouri summers are hot and I'll be at the pool any chance I get!
The most comfortable I've ever been in a two piece was when I was pregnant! I don't think size has any impact on whether or not you can wear a two piece.
I don't know how you can wear a one piece... two piece is so much easier to fit into! I looked awesome in my bikini! Better than when I'm not pregnant lol. I looked better in a bikini than I did in regular clothes ha ha... In any case I think it's beautiful to see a bump in a two piece. Better than a beer belly ha ha.
I personally wear tankinis while pregnant, I find it more comfortable. But I do think everyone should wear what they feel is most comfortable for themselves, be it bikini, one piece or tankini, pregnant bellies are beautiful in almost anything! Enjoy your winter swimming! I'm jealous! Our neighborhood pool is an outdoor one so it only opens during summer, and I miss swimming already! I was thinking of taking a prenatal swim class at our local rec center or something. Maybe I should look into that!
If you're comfortable then do it! I do masters swimming and open water swimming so wear a one piece regularly but just to hang at the pool would definitely wear a two and I imagine it would be much more comfortable.
A slight tangent, but somewhat still relevant. I am an actress, and I majored in theatre education in school. One of my favorite things to do all year is go to the Renn Fest. Here, it is mid-June through the end of August. I have two costumes that I wear, one is a very tight steampunk corset, and the other is a Gypsy/belly dancer costume. Obviously, this year the corset will be out, so I have a vision of wearing the belly dancer costume with my giant 8 month belly sticking out. I think it will be super cute and self-empowering and fun. It's the small things...
Whatever you feel comfortable in, do it. Personally, I have always detested one piece swim suits, and I can't see my mind changing with pregnancy and a giant bump surely on the way. I don't know how much I'm going to be swimming anyways, but I would wear a two piece without hesitation.

That said, I'm a firm believer in anyone wearing whatever suit they feel comfortable in, pregnant or no. You do you.
