Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687530 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 16:49:32 +0000 PixieStix 1687530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ooh, thanks for posting! I have a goal set for myself to lose a certain amount of weight by my birthday in late August. If I meet it, I plan on buying myself a tankini... and this just might be the one. I like the cranberry paisley! Very cute.</p> <p>P.S. amen for underwire.

My old ones deliberately show a strip of skin and I'm with you now---nobody needs to see that! The ruching is also more flattering than the picture suggests </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687347 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 11:47:23 +0000 mrsbookworm 1687347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's really cute!<br /> Do you find that the top meets the bottom (and stays there)? I don't need any of my stomach showing! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687253 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 09:39:04 +0000 Anagram 1687253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: I know. I went EVERYWHERE in person, from low end to high end, and nothing was working. I found several things online but all $$$$ and it seemed insane to order $600 worth of swimwear just to be able to try on at home. So I decided to just order this one, send it back if it didn't work, and then order a second. Luckily it worked! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687247 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 09:26:23 +0000 MrsKoala 1687247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you! I've been looking for a bra sized tankini that was cute for a while and was beginning to despair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687223 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 09:07:55 +0000 Anagram 1687223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: I had never heard of Panache before but now I'm a fan! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687196 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 08:29:11 +0000 Foodnerd81 1687196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Super cute! Def not matronly. </p> <p>@babynumber1: omg I think you meant in the POOL but that's a great typo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687194 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 08:26:22 +0000 autumnlove 1687194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687184 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 08:03:28 +0000 babynumber1 1687184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a jcrew one shoulder one piece off of ebay ( they didn't have the style out then) and I LOVE it. You can be in the poop and not feel that my boobs are about to fall out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687169 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 07:45:15 +0000 StrawberryBee 1687169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you! I need to try on my suits before our beach trip at the end of this month. Ugh. My guess is I'll be making use of your recommendation ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687158 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 07:20:02 +0000 Greentea 1687158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: yes! Panache makes my nursing bra. I plan on getting a suit as well. They were the only bra and suit that had a large enough cup (for me). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-a-swimsuit-recommendation-for-big-busted-postpartum-bodies#post-1687157 Sun, 08 Jun 2014 07:15:34 +0000 Anagram 1687157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know a lot of people have been looking for swimsuits for postpartum bodies. I had planned on wearing my pre-pregnancy tankinis until I tried them on. It was like a breast explosion, in all directions. I was a D before and now I'm probably something insane like an F or G and I don't need to worry about boobage escaping on all sides while playing with LO in the pool this summer.</p> <p>So I went to every store I could irl, tried on literally about 50 suits, and ended up getting a tankini top from Everything But Water (great chain in general), but I wasn't 100% happy. The tankini top fit and covered the girls but it was definitely on the matronly side. </p> <p>Then I saw this one online and ordered it and it's great! It comes in bra sizes, up to very large cup sizes, it has a full underwire mesh bra, and one of the swim bottoms it can come with HAS NO MUFFIN TOP. it's like a miracle.</p> <p>And I think the nautical styling is a little less matronly and more fresh. It's the Panache Veronica tankini in Navy. I tried both the fold over and the striped side bottoms and the striped side bottoms were WAY more flattering (I ordered a size up for both). </p> <p>It's on Amazon, Herroom, Figleaves, etc.</p> <p>Pics! </p> [attach=2976/14/n6une0.553x600.image.jpg] [attach=2976/14/n6une2.553x600.image.jpg] [attach=2976/14/n6une3.553x600.image.jpg]
