Maternity Swimsuits

I need to break down and buy one.  *shudder at the thought of me in a bathing suit*   Where are all the cute ones? 

I checked out Old Navy, Target, and Destinationmaternity.com      A Pea In The Pod had some cute ones, but I'm not spending $150 on a bathing suit that I will wear for a few months and then never again.  

VS had this really cute one, except it's obviously not maternity.  It was very 40's pin up girl.  Maybe I will just go old school and do what I used to do when I was a fat kid, tee shirt and shorts in the water.  LOL    

They have some in the sale section of a pea in the pod.  They  range from 19.99 to 139.99.  They were originally 38.00 to 200.00.  Perhaps something in that section might fit your style and yet still be reasonably affordable considering the amount of time you are going to wear it?

Wow, you hit all the places I would normally suggest. Maybe try JC Penny's or Kohl's. Those are the only other places I can think of that have some nice maternity things.

I still go old school when swimming. I am 5 years out from surgery and haven't worn a suit once. Johnny is taking me to the beach for the weekend over my birthday and he said I MUST get a suit. Yikes! I am scared! LOL

Good luck finding a suit. I may check out VS for one myself. I didn't think of them, thanks for the idea.

I'm sure you'll look adorable whatever you find.  Maybe try Motherhood Maternity?

Here are some semi-cute suits! I bought a swim skirt last year and used one of my tank tops. I only went swimming once but I wasn't about to spend over 100.00 on a suit I wouldn't wear but a few times.

Julie,

As hard as you have worked to stay away from plus sizes can you go back there one more time and get a plus sized suit.  JCPenney has some cute ones on line. 

And let me say that you are brave....the though of me in a bathing suit now would surely put me into early labor.  I will just sit in the AC and cool off!

Good luck on the bathing suit hunt.

The problem with just sizing up is that my ass would be hanging off and my boobs would be falling out.  LOL  

For the good of putting my kids in the pool, I'm going to have to suck it up and get whatever suit doesn't look too heinous. 

I was in Iowa the last few days and my Aunt took me to Gordmans.  Do you have one of those any where near you?  I know we don't have them in Az at all, but they had some super cute maternity clothes and swim suits!!  I know I saw some at another place in Iowa, but I can't even think of where it was.  We went to I think just about every store in the greater Des Moines area! 

Nope, never heard of that store.  

 Hi there-- try ebay. Just type in maternity swimsuits and many come up-- not pricy either.  
The thought of a used swimsuit initially bothered me, but how often do you think it was actually worn?  Good luck and hope that helps-- joann
