Swimsuits - Rock the bump or cover it up?

So how many of you ladies will be wearing bikinis this season and how many will opt for bump coverage? I personally think a preggy in a bikini is adorable but am not sure if I have the courage to pull it off. :)

    I'm a one-piece / tankini wearer even when I'm not pregnant. My bump will most likely be covered!

    Tankini is the way to go. No way I can squeeze into a one piece. I'll feel like a sausage!

    I feel like I am leaning towards bikini but with shorts or something. I am really unhappy with my thighs/butt, but have no problem flaunting my belly! I agree with @AmommyB it's the first time I don't have to suck it it!

    Bikini! I just got home from a cruise and wore bikinis. I've never owned a one piece.

    I've never worn a bikini in my life: until we went to the beach when I was 30weeks pregnant. It was faaaahbulous! Normally I do a one-piece, but I find myself pregnant yet again in the summer. So tankini or bikini all the way!

    I guess it depends on what the situation is and whether you feel comfortable or not. We had a fortnight of freakish summer weather last time I was pregnant and it's only right to make the most of it x

    I'm stretch mark tastic from pregnancy #1... so I'll be full coverage if I have the courage to wear a bathing suit at all!

    Show your stuff momma! I'm sure you look beautiful! I have some stripes on my thighs so I will probably do a wrap around my booty. But I'm loving the fact that my stomach is tighter than tight!!! I'm sure u look fantastic!

    I have the skin of a vampire so I cover up anyway. Pregnant women in bikinis are beautiful though and I wish I could rock it!

    Bikini!!!! I love not having to worry about sucking in. But I am also in the camp that everyones body is beautiful. Be proud of who you are.

    I've never worn a bikini in my life. Just NMS. But I've also never felt so comfortable with my body as I do right now! So if that keeps up further into my pregnancy, I will have to bring out the bikini :)

    I think a pregnant belly is adorable, but I also think it's only for my husband's eyes to see!

    This cracked me up. I agree! Bikini for me as long as I don't get too "flappy slappy."

    As long as I don't look "fat" in it, I'm flaunting the belly.

    depending on how sad my thighs look, i'll go for the bikini, or the bikini with shorts. not running has really caused me to lose a lot of tone in my thunder thighs. :( but i am also a pasty white person who burns like nobody's business, so i doubt i'll be brave enough to put the belly out there, haha.

    If my stretch marks get much worse, it will be a tankini for me. I'm not at all opposed to the Preggo bikini though! If I had my own pool, I'd do it no matter what.

    Bikini! I've always worn them, they're how I felt most comfortable so hopefully I can feel comfortable in them while pregnant as well. The one piece makes me feels self conscious that it's hugging everything and I don't think I've ever seen one with padding in the boobs so people don't see the nips when they're hard haha

    We're headed to Maui on Wednesday & I'm taking both - a bikini and a tankini!  I have never been more excited! LOL

    Honestly I feel like I look more fat than pregnant, but guess what? I don't give two shits! :)

    One piece for me.  Not because I have anything against a bikini but I am just more comfortable in a one piece ;)

    I'm 22 weeks 4 days and finally starting to look more pregnant! I am definitely going to be rocking a bikini when I go swimming on Wednesday for some exercise. I can't wait till my belly is much bigger in the summer!
