Bikini at 22 weeks?

PharmDMom · May 2013

I'm a petite person and normally wear a bikini when swimming. We are taking DD to the community pool tomorrow and I'm on the fence about wearing mine. I have a maternity suit my BFF gave me but hate it. Im fortunate that my bikini still fits and covers my butt andboobs, I don't have any stretch marks yet, and my belly button is still normal looking. I know I shouldn't care what people think but I am having trouble with feeling self conscious because I feel like people will be staring or judging. With DD I never encountered this dilemma bc if how the seasons fell.

So I guess my question is... regardless of whether you personally would wear the bikini or not, do you think it's weird for a noticeably pregnant woman to wear one?

Not weird, I wore mine out to the backyard to sunbathe last weekend, it looked fine. Rock that bikini! I cannot fathom anyone thinking it's 'weird'.

I will wear a bikini until I get stretch marks!!

If you're comfortable in it, wear it. I think it's pretty common to wear bikini's while pregnant, especially as early as 22 weeks.

Not at all....Sport it Momma and be Proud!!!

I don't think it's weird. If I had the body I would do it!

Nope. I plan to wear one all summer!

Nope! I wish I could wear one, but my belly just isn't the right shape, along with the rest of my body. More power to you if you can! I admire those women for embracing their bodies

I think it's cute. I wore one last weekend in Palm Springs and I didn't have anyone give me rude looks, in fact people acknowledged and smiled. I say go for it!!

I'll be wearing a bikini the whole pregnancy. I did last time, and will this time as well.

I wore one at the beach last week. I sensed that my MIL did not approve but I didn't care. No strange looks from anyone else.

ADJ6609 · May 2013

I wore mine on the dock last weekend and planned to continue to wear it throughout the summer at the pool with DD. I say go for it!

PharmDMom · May 2013

Okay I definitely feel more confident about going for it now. Thanks everyone!!

I will likely have to buy a new bikini to accommodate the boobs, but I am planning on wearing one. I have a maternity suit that I actually do like and find flattering that I will wear sometimes because when I'm chasing DS it's easier, but I hate tankinis and think that one pieces make my legs look fat, so I'd rather wear a bikini.

Emilyraymond · May 2013

Def go for it!! I think it's cute if your built for a bikini and don't have the stretch marks. I would in a heartbeat.

Rock the bikini! If you get a weird look then just tell them to suck it.

Just make sure to double up on sunblock. My belly burns much quicker pregnant.

Flaunt that bump! Petite builds almost ALWAYS look cute pregnant so I'm sure you will be fine.

I'm 21 weeks and just got back from a week in Egypt. I wore a bikini everyday x

I'm going out of town for a 'Girls Weekend' next Saturday. There WILL be pool time involved and I WILL be rocking a bikini at 20 weeks with a considerably large tummy (no stretchmarks...woo hoo)!!

Zulixx · June 2013

I'll be rocking one this summer. I'm nervous about this first time around cause I look more fat than Prego right now. I'm still in the awkward phase.
