POLL: Preggo bellies in bikinis

DH and I leave in less than 4 weeks for our baby moon (Chat Icon Chat Icon). I got one maternity tankini for the trip for $12 but I haven't found another so cheap and it's killing me to buy a bathing suit for 5 days. I have a gazillion suits, just all bikinis.

So, parading around your preggo belly in a bikini - Yay or Nay?

(I'll be 25-26 weeks while we're away, if that makes a difference.)

I don't mind at all when others do it, but I just couldn't. I'm just self conscious about my belly.
So YAY for you. NAY for me. lol

If you are comfortable with it, who really cares what others think?

Over the summer I refused to do the tankini thing. I bought one and returned it.

The last time I bared belly was Labor Day weekend (ironically!) and I felt like people were staring at me. It made me feel a little weird, but it was all good....Chat Icon

That's the question Chat Icon I think it's adorable on other people... but I don't know if I'm comfortable doing it for me.

Whoever said Nicole Richie, it's so funny - her pic is the one that made me post this! I'm carrying fairly similarly to her (though she got more boobs, lucky girl) and I think she looks very cute... but I'm not sure I think I'd look very cute. Does that even make sense Chat Icon

I think many look so cute in one.

But just like non-preggos wearing a bikini it's about confidence too.

I love preggo's in bikinis, but personally - would not be comfortable. I would feel like people would be looking at me and making comments (good and bad)!

Re: POLL: Preggo bellies in bikinis

I went away at 28 weeks and wore tankini's. My boobs didn't fit into my pre-preggo bikini tops anyway.

I personally don't feel comfortable parading around my bare belly, but that's just how I am.

I totally love it and I say go for it. I wore a bikini up to about 22 weeks when the summer ended... We are going on a babymoon next week and I wont be wearing a bikini only because my belly button is half popped out and it looks gross. even i dont want to look at it. If it wasnt for that, I would totally wear a bikini still. But, I think I am going to opt for the tankini which will cover the awful belly button situation.

I think it's cute! We went to the beach tons this summer and I wore a bikini throughout which for me went to about 34 weeks. In fact, I never even bought a maternity bathing suit and just wore my regular bikinis. DH loved it.

Re: POLL: Preggo bellies in bikinis

When we went on our cruise I wore a bikini twice and wore tankinis twice. I see nothing wrong with it, but I wasn't comfortable by a crowded pool... I didn't mind when I was on the beach though. I think part of it was that the tops didn't fit me the way they used to and I felt like I was spilling out.

I say go for it! I'm sure you look cuter than you think you do.

Re: POLL: Preggo bellies in bikinis

I've seen photos of you and YOU would look cute in a bikini, so I voted Yay.

I, on the other hand, would have scared people in a bikini pre-pregnancy, so it would be a NAY for me. Chat Icon I saw a few people in Aruba pregnant in bikinis and they looked great.
