anyone planning to rock a bump in a bikini?

baker1jm2 · April 2015

I can't decide if i want to rock the bump or do a 1 piece maternity suit.... I'd like to think id be brave enough to wear the bikini but id probably chicken out. . What's everyone elses plan?

Sematti · April 2015

I want to be able to do it but I have no idea what I'll look like this summer so can't commit quite yet. I haven't gained weight outside my belly much butttttt I'm only 4 months in so who knows!! I think it's adorable when people can pull it off so I say go for it!

steph256 · April 2015

I bought two today. I rocked a two piece last time and it was so much easier than a one piece. I can't wait do my beach trip in a few weeks now.

insomniack17 · April 2015

I rocked A 2 Piece last pregnancy. I wore a lava lava (wrap, thin towel) up around my bump to walk around in but when I relaxed and laid out my belly was all out there. I got pretty lucky with my first pregnancy and only showed/gain weight in my belly so I was very comfortable. This pregnancy has given me some beautiful curves and I still feel confident enough to rock a 2 piece. I love the vintage 2 pieces. Super cute!

savwhit · April 2015

2 piece. Bc I know how frustrated I'm going to get every time I have to pee in a 1 pc! No WAY am I putting up with that HAHA. Plus that just more clothing on my body during the hottest time of my pregnancy and biggest most miserable time of my pregnancy.

Nessy430 · April 2015

Prob a bikini but if I start putting on too much weight in other areas maybe a tankini lol

mrscate88 · April 2015

I'll get both, a tankini that covers my belly and a bikini that I can tan in and lounge around the house in. We live in so-cal and we're in our swimsuits for six months of the year haha, so I need a few options. I'll also use coverups and summery dresses if I start putting on a little too much weight haha

VeronicaGarcia03 · April 2015

I don't know if I will be able to find a bikini top that fits since my boobs keep growing and I had issues before. I do however LOVE my baby bump, I wouldn't mind showing it off

flyerbabe · April 2015

I'm 15 weeks and heading to the beach in 2 weeks time, gg to just put on my bikini.. I don't have a bump yet, so I think I might just look 'fat'.. In the end, it's all about what you are comfortable in.

myspecialkid · April 2015

If I could rock a bikini normally I would, but I'll be wearing a two piece for sure this summer.

Sunshine620 · April 2015

Definitely going to rock the bikini this year. DH is really looking forward to summer

joannerows · April 2015

Bikini! Remember to use sunscreen on bump especially bc the skin is so thin there!

mybabynumber2 · April 2015

Totally! I'll be proud to walk along the beach with my bump on full show in a 2 piece.

Pregnancy is a wonderful and amazing thing, I won't be hiding my bump from anyone lol :-)

annibanani0929 · April 2015

I'm traveling to Mexico in a few weeks, and being that I'm not one who particulary likes the sun, I plan on rocking my bikini with a tank top over it. I don't plan on purchasing a maternity swim as I'm not a big fan of the pool.

PCMac · April 2015

Bikini all the way! my SO supports me and knows how badly I want to show off the little bump plus he loves the way my boobs look in my bras so the bikini is a win win for both. lol

ReneeJ2011 · April 2015

I'm going with a bikini for the sole reason of being able to buy a size big enough to hold these girls (now a 34 H) and not being swallowed everywhere else.

missliz53 · April 2015

I'm going to buy a bikini top to match bottoms that I already have since I think the girls will burst out of my current top. Any suggestions for where to buy swimsuits when your boobs are bigger than a double d?

jmacd22 · April 2015

Go for it! I love seeing pregnant women in bikinis. I think it's cute

sugarmagn0lia · April 2015

Hell yeah bikini bumps! Let's be honest, how stinkin cute are pregnant ladies in bikinis? And I'm not just talking about the six foot tall model-types who get no pregnancy symptoms other than a perfect tiny round bump - I'm talkin all of them! I am a little biased (I posted this to another bikini thread, so sorry if it's redundant to someone from that one!), but I'm about 5'4 or 5'5, yet all my height comes from my legs and I have a hella short torso, soo any kind of one piece or tankini looks suuuper awkward. Incidentally, I had to go to a swimming party for our niece a couple weeks ago at 13+5 and was left with no other choice, despite thinking I wouldn't be bikini-ing it up until I was more obviously pregnant! And if you get there and feel self- conscious (I did, being in the "pudge or pregnant?" phase), just touch your belly lots - that's my new security blanket!

insomniack17 · April 2015

@ReneeJ2011 omg 34H???? I am at 34F and even I think I have gotten too big. I am dreading the day milk actually starts flowing in these suckers. I feel for you. :-O

Sorry, I'm one of those 6 foot biatches Hahahaha but my bump ain't tiny by any means!

I love taking me son swimming and rockin me bump! People look and it makes me walk taller, with a little smile on my face.
Yes to all the lookers, I'm making a baby, what have you done today? Lol (stole that phrase from a t shirt that says exactly that) haha :-)

LoveLee85 · April 2015

Lol! I'm wearing a UVA/UVB material shirt and swim bottoms that match. I always slather myself in SPF 50 and reapply constantly

incase I missed a spot. I don't burn easy but I don't like harsh sun on me, it does horrible things to the texture of my skin. I'm the person at the beach/pool with a tan, but in the hat, sunglasses, and umbrella, Ha!

sarahnikai · April 2015

I kinda want to, but I have stretch marks from my first two LOs, so I'm just undecided for now, but I don't think there's anything weird or wrong with pregnant women wearing bikinis, actually, I think it's cute!

mybabynumber2 · April 2015

@sarahnikai be proud of those stretch marks hunni!

Show them to the world with your head held high! Let people see you've done the most amazing thing....

You've created not one, but 2 babies, plus another LO on the way :-) xx

sarahnikai · April 2015

Thank you @mybabynumber2 ! Youre a sweetheart!!

bouncypigeon · April 2015

I got a tankini that will grow with my belly for while and will probably just do bikinis near the end. Already have a hard enough time finding a one piece that isn't too short. And I have a feeling that I will be so hot July-September that I'm just not going to give a crap if people see my jiggles!

kjjellybean · April 2015

I have a tankini. My poor stomach is covered I. Stretch marks from previous pregnancy and a lot of stretched skin. It will be much more comfortable for me to be covered but still easy to pee when needed.

seg6394 · April 2015

I might wear some bikinis when my stomach is fully rounded, but I also have to say that I have two maternity one pieces (which I've never worn before in my life) and they are so damn cute. I've gotten SO many compliments on both of them! One is from target and the other is from destination maternity. I'm also really fair so I think it will help with shielding some sun on my belly in the heat of the summer. Also, for the peeing situation- which I was actually a little concerned about haha- I didn't take it fully off everytime, just held it to the side when I had to pee and it worked perfectly! Sorry if that was TMI haha.

Wgoad01 · April 2015

I say go for it! I wouldn't before I got pregnant definitely not going to now that I'm pregnant but I say if your comfortable more power to ya. : )

shelbydd · April 2015

I'm going to be 100% honest and say that I was overweight pre-pregnancy and can't wait to wear a 2 piece at the beach later this month. Doubt I'll look pregnant but I really don't care. I've got an awesome wonder woman 2 piece and I'm excited to wear it.

vmcarbone · April 2015

I plan on getting a tankini

acg5 · April 2015

I say bikini!! This just came up from when I was 22 weeks pregnant with my first.

MsTeaBlaze · April 2015

Can't wait to wear all my bikinis cuz after baby comes, bikinis out the window for a while.

melewen · April 2015

I was just about to post on this topic! I had been eyeing this bikini for our cruise next month and saw it today and had to get it! It looks great with the bump!

melewen · April 2015

The back is a soft tie too so seriously comfy. I was just texting my friend with whom I bought it that I want to wear it to bed! Lol

mill1020 · April 2015

Go for it! I usually let it all hang out. Who cares if people stare? Where I live, it's too hot not to swim, and too expensive to buy maternity bathing suits for such short-lived use.

BrianaJ0917 · April 2015

Planning on rocking the bikini...will probably buy a tankini for backup just in case I have a day where I want to cover the bump...but def no one piece (have to pee to much to be trying to pull up a wet bathing suit OVER a bump..no thanks!) Plus this is the one summer we will be able to not be "in shape" and still rock the bikini so I say go for it!!!

Knottie00400192 · April 2015

Definitely doing both. I bought a beautiful bikini from VS and a sexy one piece lol I guess I just haven't accepted that I need to buy granny looking bathing suits..lol

Rachelsbaby · April 2015

Oh yea bikini all the way. The best part of being pregnant u can let it all hang out and not worry about sucking in. The only problem I have is I'm big chested to begin with and I'm just getting bigger so finding a top that fits is challenging.
