No triangle top would have held in the pregnancy boobs I had. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275680 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 07:14:03 +0000 yin 275680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore a bikini without even thinking twice about it. I loved my pregnant belly, and I didn't want to spend extra $ on a maternity bathing suit or tankini. I was pretty big so I got a few stares, but I didn't mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275674 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 07:04:54 +0000 MsLipGloss 275674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Highwire: You really should! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275663 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 06:51:37 +0000 PrincessBaby 275663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Whoop whoop!

DH actually thought I looked great and thought the bikini made me look better than the one piece I have. Might be sporting the bump after all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275645 Thu, 30 Aug 2012 06:34:32 +0000 PrincessBaby 275645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Thank you!!!

I couldn't find a maternity suit that fit, so it was just the easiest that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275388 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 19:45:35 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 275388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just did this weekend! In Vegas, no less! (At a non-Dance Party-type pool.) It was scary and I felt a little uncomfortable, but it was worth it. I'm pretty big and obviously pregnant in clothes, but I'm not sure if it translates to a bikini or not... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275380 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 19:36:51 +0000 anonysquire 275380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love bikinis on pregnant women. So cute.</p> <p> @mediagirl: Ummm why shouldn't you show off your belly? </p> <p>Poor Tori spelling got so much flack for wearing a bikini, but she freaking rocked it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275376 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 19:35:12 +0000 mediagirl 275376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. I wore a bikini one summer of my life to get an even tan before my wedding. I would never wear one pregnant. I'm not a big fan of women who do wear them while pregnant. I feel like they're trying to show off the belly or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275374 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 19:33:40 +0000 allison 275374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Personally, I feel more confident in my pregnant body than I did pre-pregnancy. I don't have to worry about sucking my belly in, bc everything's pulled so tight! I probably wouldn't wear one hugely pregnant, but 26 weeks is totally fine, in my book. I wouldn't think twice if I saw a pregnant girl in a bikini. Well, actually, I'd probably think "how cute!". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275327 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 18:54:13 +0000 chopsuey 275327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would if I had a cute pregnant body! :D haha. I wore a Tankini to the beach a couple months ago. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275296 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 18:37:45 +0000 JerricaBenton 275296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would if it was the right time where I had a cute bump! Most of the summer I've just had this 'big lunch' belly so I didn't feel comfortable with my belly out. Maybe on our babymoon in October though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275287 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 18:23:57 +0000 Protectlove 275287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I absolutely did! It felt so good to not be confined by clothes! And if I had any discomfort about what anyone thought it absolutely dissolved once I hit the water- it felt so good. Do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275225 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 17:34:16 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 275225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 26w, yes :)<br /> At the 33+5 weeks I am -NO.<br /> I think up until 30 weeks I would have said yes because it was a cute, round bump. But now, I've got this super dark linea negra and my stomach has dropped in preparation for delivery and it just isn't that "super cute" belly anymore. It is just: big.<br /> So, wear it while you can! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275196 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 17:22:01 +0000 Sweet T 275196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't because my body wasn't really in bikini shape before I got pregnant. If it had been, I definitely would have worn a bikini. I bought a maternity tankini instead. It's cute, so I didn't mind the purchase. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg/page/2#post-275068 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:53:30 +0000 JoJoGirl 275068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally will! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg#post-275066 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 15:52:39 +0000 mamabolt 275066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All you bikini mamas look so cute!

And it was not pretty. But I was like 36 weeks and gigantically swollen. But I was at the beach and couldn't have cared less. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg#post-274984 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:56:26 +0000 birdofafeather 274984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: @FutureMrsMcK: you two look amazing!</p> <p>i rocked my suit at 17 weeks when my bump had popped a bit. i think it still looks a little like a beer gut, but it was 100 degrees at the lake! </p> [attach=1362/12/m9j8q3.450x600.photo.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-youwould-you-wear-a-bikini-while-preg#post-274956 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:27:26 +0000 lovehoneybee 274956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You look amazing, go for it!</p> <p>I let my belly hang out in all it's glory on a family beach vacation when I was 33 or 34 weeks.
