As the school year ends and summer Fridays are in effect, you're probably going to want to spend some of your free time at the beach or by the pool. And even though you may have rocked an itsy bitsy bikini with pride before getting pregnant, you may be a little nervous about showing skin if you're expecting. Fortunately, the days of hideous tent-like maternity swimwear are gone. Today's moms have lots of fun and colorful maternity bathing suits to choose from that are designed to suit every body type.
When choosing the perfect suit, be sure to play up the parts of your body that you're most comfortable showing off. If you're feeling self conscious about your larger boobs, you may wants to opt for more coverage on top. And don't be afraid to choose a bold color or print that will make you stand out among the other beachgoers. Remember, your pregnant body is beautiful, and something to be celebrated rather than ashamed of.
Let the suits on this list inspire your shopping this beach season, and play around with what works best for you. Because before you know it, you'll be shopping for winter coats and boots again.
