in 2nd Trimester

Anyway i have a pretty good sized bump already but i hate maternity swimwear. I am considering wearing a bikini, but dont know if i'm that brave.

What do you ladies think? My thoughts are none of the people there are ever going to see me again so who cares right??

    I'm ALL about wearing a bikini when you're pregnant! Display that bump with pride!!! Plus, I've seen the maternity swimwear that's out there & I'm not impressed. They are the most unflattering things EVER!

    My thoughts on bikinis are the same whether there is a baby belly or not.  I truly think very few women should be parading in one.  Unless you have a killer body, there are other suits which will flatter your body. Personally, I don't wear a bikini because I don't look good in one.  I see way too much skin that is not bikini worthy at the beach. And with each glance, I wish I didn't have to.  So, if you think your body warrants a bikini, go for it.

    I never could do it, especially being pregnant. But that is just me, i have never been very comfortable with bathing suit season. But i will say that if you have a great bump to sport the bikini, then go for it. Major kudos to you for being confident in yourself to wear one. Cool

    Do what you're most comfortable with.  If you really want to rock it and you can- you totally should- I think it can be a really cute look (and I can't do it even if I wanted because there is not a bikini top on this planet that can support my ladies). 

    On the other hand- if in the back of your mind you'll be self-conscious the whole time then it might not be worth - you want to be able to enjoy yourself.

    This, but I would add: if you wouldn't parade around an ex-boyfriend in your bikini, you probably shouldn't be wearing one.

    That is the best statement regarding bikinis I have ever read!  And so true...

    Oh my gosh, that is a perfect gauge to go by!  Nice theory!  Love it!

    Then you don't care what anyone thinks so why are you asking a bunch of strangers if you should be wearing a bikini when the answer is very clearly probably not.

    Well then maybe you should go ahead and wear that bikini.

    Um, OP, I'm gonna go with a no on the bikini.  I wouldn't want to see you in one, and honestly, I don't want to see myself in one right now, either.

    But hey, your choice.  If you want to show it off, go ahead.

    In my opinion if you look okay in a bikini when you're not pregnant, you'll look adorable when you are pregnant.  If you have horrible stretch marks, then you might want to skip it.  But who really cares what anyone else thinks?  If you like the way you look, wear what makes you happy!
