vacation in tropical place during pregnancy

hi ladies, we are leaving for our last trip as a family of 3 on monday for DR.
I will be 17 weeks, already showing...

do i need to have my belly covered up the entire time im out in the sun? i forgot what i did with DD.
if so what did you use if you wore your bikini? a towel a tshirt?
im so dramatic i know.

anything else to watch out for?
i know drink only bottled water. but juices are fine too right?

Common sense tells me that if you're sporting that bump, you better have a good amt of sun block on it at all times! Im going on a cruise in jan and will be 23 weeks... I already have a bump and plan on getting some tankini's so i dont have to worry about that ....

I think its fine as long as you use your sunscreen. My girlfriend was VERY pregnant and sporting a bikini at the beach last summer.

so maybe ill just run out to target and get a tankini or two and ill be set
thanks ladies.
