bathing suit debateee

[maybaby19]

How do you guys feel about pregnant girls in bikinis? Trying to decide if i should rock a one piece until after baby is born or if i should say screw it n still get a bikini lol Honest opinions please! I'm due in the middle of May and live in florida so its pretty much beach weather in february lol My mom and grandma both think its "disgusting" to see a pregnant belly, i get ridiculed for lifting my shirt to show people and I'm only 23 weeks right now...so i can only imagine when I'm 30+ weeks in a bathing suit because "who would want to see someones belly like that and why would you want people to see it?"

@baby2_on_the_way: omg thats so cold!! I was born in FL so im used to going to the beach all year long. I dont do well im the cold haha. At least you dont have to worry about sweating everywhere you go lol. Water parks are a lot of fun!! Have fun!

[Toriiee]

the water here stays cold fur awhile too... well the beaches i go to... thats why usually wenever i go to the beach to get in the water i go towards the later summer where itd be warmer.... my familys usually havin pool parties at my aunts or out at the lake or something rather than the beaches...

[baby2_on_the_way]

I'm so jealous that you guys are going to the beaches, its like -10 degrees here and my nose freezes if I step outside :-(  Wisconsin will not have warm beaches until AT LEAST June if not July, the air will warm before then but the lake water is ice cold! But I will definitely have fun at the water park in the mean time haha

[FTM2913]

I asked the same question a few weeks ago bc my cousin said its disgusting as well. I hadnt even thought twice till she said that lol. I live in FL too and went to the beach in my bikini and rocked it lol. Wear that bikini with pride girl! :)

[Toriiee]

its been nice weather here where im at (So-Cal) but i believe the beaches are colder haha nd its bout an hour drive mby a lil less so i dnt see drivin out there right now to go to the beach... i would tho if it was much hotter to where id actually wanna get in the water :) im plannin on goin out to Hermosa Beach my birthday to go eat at my favorite restaraunt so mby then ill wear a bikini if its nice weather :) ill be 37 weeks then...

Rock it girl! My hubby thinks it's hot seeing pregnant women in bikinis when we go to the beach lol

[maybaby19]

I'm the same way baby2 :) have fun at the water park!!!

[baby2_on_the_way]

I love pregnant bellies:-)  I live i'm Wisconsin and am due April 15th so it will still be child, but in a few Weeks we are headed to a water park and I will be 30+ Weeks and can't wait to run around in my little bakini flaunting this beautiful belly of mine:-)  I wear tight shirts everywhere I go and love the attention my belly draws :-)  it gives me an excuse to talk about how excited I am to meet mY baby boy

[maybaby19]

Thanks Cassi! I posted this on facebook too and got very similar responses so i agree...they can shove it :)

[Cassi_B]

FLAUNT THAT BEAUTIFUL BELLY. don't ever let anyone make you feel like it's anything less that beautiful. no offense to mom and grandmom but they can shove it where the sun don't shine. That's just terrible that they tell you that. I'm barely showing but there is no way I'm hiding my belly. I live in the Tampa bay area so i know it's practically beach weather now and i can't wait to show off my belly at the beach. Everyone who has a problem and thinks it's ugly can shove it where the sun don't shine too. If i ever see a pregnant lady in a bikini, i tell her "RIGHT ON!" Never be ashamed of that belly mama!

[maybaby19]

Bahaha Acline you made me literally lol...i heard that in my grandmas voice!
And 2nd time, i didn't even think about my future stretch marks getting scarred up! Thanks for reminding me! That could have been bad lol...and i don't live with my family so I'm not too worried about it, just sick of hearing it! Our bumps are beautiful :)

[acline93]

girl I live in south carolina, so we have pretty much the same weather lol but I bought one of those bathing suits with the cute skirt attached, because you know how southern people act("lord have mercy, can you believe the nerve that girl got?") hahahha

[2nd_time]

I say rock the belly bump (but I'm from So Cal)!  ;) pregnancy is the only time we ladies are applauded for gaining weight. If your mom and grandma are going to make you feel bad, look for a tankini...but be sure to slather on the sunscreen, because there's something about preggo skin that will make you burn MUCH quicker than before. And if you have any stretch marks, the scars will take forever to go away...

Have fun!

[maybaby19]

My thoughts exactly Franky :)

[Franky91]

Rock it nothin wrong with a fat jelly belly guy with his belly out so why any different for us preggers

[Alexxis]

I asked myself the same thing. I live in florida and om due may 30th I went to the beach last week and just said screw it & wore a bikini my friends kept sayin I look so cute and im like a feel huge they say who cares your pregnant ! So w.e u feel comfortable in (:

[aedinaddieplusone]

If your comfortable with it I say do it, who cares what people think. I'd rock a bikini during summer, I think pregnancy is a beautiful thing and anyone that thinks its gross to show off your belly is immature. Why is it acceptable to where close to nothing but not a bikini when your pregnant. Its a natural process and some people are ignorant when it comes to pregnancy.  Just my thoughts :)

[pmaried]

Wear whatever makes you feel good!! Seriously why even be concerned with what other people think?? Yeah people might look & stare but it might just be awe & curiousity~

[jocelynn_mommy812]

I was about 34-36 weeks un summer and I wore a bikini lol I just put a lot of sun screen on my belly and when it got to hot I would cover it up lol . I don't see anything wrong w it I loved my.belly it was so perfect and round, go ahead and show it off!!(:

[maybaby19]

I am super comfortable with my body and I'm extremely blessed to have this baby in me so i don't mind showing him off! I just wanted to see how you ladies felt about it...most of the summer ill prob be at the local river instead of the beach anyway, its closer to home...and the hospital lol

[Optimysticmama]

Id say, wear whatever you feel comfortable in. For me, my torso is so long i cannot find a one piece that fits (or my boobs hang out or i have a major camel toe). But, im the same as your mom & gma, not so much with other ppl but myself. Im 37+3 and not that big really  but when ur lookin down it alway seems bigger. I have a  tankini. my belly shows but not even a quarter as much as the string bikini from before.

[mommyto3girlies]

Rock it and be proud

[meatball90]

Get that bump out... the only time im comfortable showing my belly is when im pregnant... you are proud of your baby so shouldnt be ashamed to show of your bump.. id rather see loads of women in bikinis with massive bumps then just loads of skinny girls trying to be sexy.. And an all in one mite be to tight in your belly all day and make you uncomfy... if bumps out then you feel free and loose... GET THE BIKINI! STRUT THAT BUMP!

[YDOC_hope]

I'd totally rock a bikini if it was summer. Its -30 here tho :/
