To be honest the 2 piece is legit because I can not stand to roll down a wet whole piece -but thank you- but I don't feel I should "have" to cover up my body (with in reason obviously) or my baby because I'm a mother!
Ok, ok ladies, simmer down. I did a post and run yesterday because other commitments and didn't realize the kerfuffle I'd cause. I read everyone's comments, did some introspection, and left a reply in the Sat randoms thread. tl;dr synopsis: I have some deep-seated body shaming issues from childhood related to personal modesty and I'm embarrassed because I feel myself to be pretty open minded. I truthfully didn't mean to offend and y'all made me really think about *why* I had this particular UO. So in the interest of personal growth, thank you (and I really mean that.).

=D> Ok this I can understand. I have said plenty of things and put my own foot in my mouth. Thanks for more details as to *why*. Being able to step back and re-evaluate how we look at things is an awesome quality to have.
I appreciate the comments! Just to be clear this was to prove a point and not be AW. I have plenty of insecurities, but dont like being told what is or is not OK just because I am a mom. I had hoped some of you would post pics embracing your body/nursing or whatever you felt the need to also- you know "just being a mom"
Can I just say I'm pea green with envy??? I've had 5 kids (#3 isn't mine, unfortunately) and I'm no where near rocking a bikini. In fact, I've never worn one. You're fricking hot!!!!! :x
Your the resident creeper magnet! I'd be afraid what would happen to you if you went out in a 2 piece!!!

I'm in awe of you for a few reasons. Well, the obvious rocking bikini bod. The fact that you have five kids at the pool! I dread taking two to the store And nursing in public. I have yet to build up the courage to do it.

5 kids at the pool is super challenging!!! My husband is a help and my oldest is 13 so I do have help

If I had a nursing photo I'd post it in solidarity, sista! I totally get your point and support your cause.

My honest to god first thought was "she can nurse standing up?!?!"

Ha ha! Ds2 was a bouncer-he liked to be bounced to sleep. I acquired my standing while nursing skill with him trying to put him to sleep! Lol ya do what ya gotta do right!?
Shit. If I looked like that in a bikini, I would wear it everywhere. The bank, the grocery store, to mow the lawn. Sadly, I am avoiding even a one piece this year. You look great, mama!

Thanks! I don't even remember where I got it- clearance rack somewhere I'm sure. This is the top- kinda a knit type suit. And in all honesty I had the least cleavage at the pool! We had a good time I was telling DHs grandma about the thread in jist and she just chuckled.
I will say that, while my diet and workouts haven't helped my belly any, my ass is perking up nicely, so I don't feel bad wearing yoga pants. In fact, I kinda enjoy flaunting it.
Get it girl! Pepper spray on the key chain of course
I put on my old bathing suits today and they barely covered 1/8 of my boobs. I was ginormous before, and now i've got real problems. :-<
You must have allllll the boobs! Jealous!!! But you should be able to hit up the clearance racks soon( if your frugal like me) and get a top that will work hopefully!
I'm still rocking the one piece, but I found a suit that I can easily nurse in. As in, super low v-cut. I've been pretty boobalicious at the beach this season.

I hope you haven't been exposing other people's offspring to your boobalicious self

Hey, if they object, I'll squirt milk in their eye.
