Thanks for the heads up!</p> <p>My favorites are these, one shoulder, with the ruching. They're super comfortable and can be adjusted to cover a belly. I've never paid more than $40 for the ones I have, I literally stalk them when they go on sale and order them. </p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/swim/onepiecetanks/PRDOVR~59309/59309.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/swim/onepiecetanks/PRDOVR~59309/59309.jsp</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222830 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 15:13:14 +0000 littlebug 222830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just ordered one from Motherhood Maternity. I haven't gotten it yet, but it was on sale for $20! It got decent reviews. I bought for a trip to the OBX for a wedding in October. </p> <p><a href="http://www.motherhood.com/Product.asp?Product_Id=910860080&#038;MasterCategory_Id=MC9#BVRRWidgetID" rel="nofollow">http://www.motherhood.com/Product.asp?Product_Id=910860080&#038;MasterCategory_Id=MC9#BVRRWidgetID</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222818 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 15:03:33 +0000 mrsmenow 222818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got one from Target and I love it!</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/liz-lange-for-target-maternity-bandeaukini-swim-top-blue-black/-/A-14019870#?lnk=sc_qi_detaillink" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/liz-lange-for-target-maternity-bandeaukini-swim-top-blue-black/-/A-14019870#?lnk=sc_qi_detaillink</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222800 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 14:57:20 +0000 ladyfingers 222800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Oh damn!

I'll take a look at JCrew, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222586 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:19:46 +0000 chrispygal 222586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladyfingers: It was this one. <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=65469&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=895869&#038;scid=895869002" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=65469&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=895869&#038;scid=895869002</a><br /> They have coupon codes and discounts all the time, so I believe I got 30% off the price. Pre-pregnancy I was probably an XL, but I did order an XXL to be on the safe side. I ended up gaining a lot so it was the right choice for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222579 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:15:53 +0000 stiffaknee 222579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought this one and wore it about 4 weeks pp...Its not maternity but I think would work (considering what my body looked like post partum!!) Its very flattering!</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-shirred-1-piece-swimdress-assorted-colors/-/A-13720977#?lnk=sc_qi_detaillink" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-shirred-1-piece-swimdress-assorted-colors/-/A-13720977#?lnk=sc_qi_detaillink</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222568 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:13:03 +0000 looch 222568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you're willing to spend a bit more, I'd suggest looking at JCrew's swimsuits. I have ones that I wore when I was about 20 weeks along and I can still wear them now, 19 months post partum. They're that great! If you get one with ruching, you can probably wear it even further along in pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222564 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:10:37 +0000 ladyfingers 222564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks @Chrispygal! You don't happen to remember which one you bought, do you? And did you order in your normal size? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222551 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:03:33 +0000 chrispygal 222551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I purchased an Old Navy swimsuit early on in my pregnancy and wore it when I was around that far along. It was a litte loose in the middle but it was fine. It lasted me through the entire pregnancy which was so convenient. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bathing-suit-recommendations#post-222546 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:00:17 +0000 ladyfingers 222546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We'll be taking a trip to the Outer Banks next month, and I'll be 15/16 weeks. I need a basic black one-piece that isn't frumpy (no skirts) but has good coverage. My criteria, in addition:</p> <p>- Not too expensive (I will soon outgrow it!)<br /> - Preferably something I can buy in a store, not online</p> <p>I saw cute maternity suits on the Old Navy website but the Old Navy by me has a really pathetic maternity section and no suits. Pretty soon suits will be phased out at the stores around here (which is ridiculous, because we live in Florida!) but I have no idea how big I'll be at 15 weeks, so I'd like something that will easily grow with me. </p> <p>Any recommendations? Thanks ladies! </p>
