Maternity swimming "gear" for my ENORMOUS MAMMARIES!!!

[SpaceDinosaur]

So, I was a G cup before pregnancy... I am currently a VERY full G cup moving on to a GG. Currently only 11+1 but I have popped a mini bump and my boobs are on the up.

I am no longer comfortable wearing my bikinis but I really want to swim.

I popped into Jojo Maman Bebe full of hope and optimism but the very few items they had out looked like they wouldn't fit anything more than a D.
I was a size 12/14 pre pregnancy. Bottoms 12, top 14 (boobs)

Bravissimo (my usual haunt) have no maternity gear to see.

Please may SOMEONE guide me?!!

Hi,

Panache do fantastic larger boob sports bras, I've just looked and they do bikinis up a HH in some styles.

Perhaps one of those for support, with a tankini in a larger than normal clothes size? x

Figleaves have a GG+ swimwear section which may be worth a try.

If you can get to Bravissimo, try on instore and work out what suits you- they do swimwear to a K cup. When you've got a bump to factor in, it's often easier to just get a bikini- fold or tie side bottoms can work well- and bung a t shirt on top if you're really not keen on showing your tummy. Fantasie tankinis tend to fit looser in the body and go up to about a H but they're quite ££.

I did hydrotherapy every week for the last trimester and wore a bikini (tie up one several sizes bigger on top than the bottom - didn't spend a fortune on it but lasted well) I am usually self concious but actually as I had a more defined bump it was fine wearing a bikini. At the end of pregnancy I was a 32K up from my usual 28FF
I couldn't find a maternity suit that coped with my huge but very neat defined bump, huge boobs but still normal sized bum without it being baggy or too tight somewhere.

Next did maternity swimwear up to a 22 I think. The cups weren't underwired but did have a shelf.

Thank you so much for all of your suggestions.

So, interesting to learn that no one actually makes specific maternity swimwear for busty ladies.

Most nursing bras stop around a g too I think - I got a hot milk one and was a g before my milk came in...

Large and or generous of nork women don't get pregnant y'see because we are ao hideously unattractive !

[SpaceDinosaur]

WOAH!!! I never contemplated finding a NURSING bra a challenge.

That is insane.

What the hell to BFing large busted women wear then?

[HildurOdegard]

Just strap two buckets to your chest - it might be a tight fit mind.

I'm wearing the nursing bras I bought 8 years ago for my first (so glad I keep everything) but when I looked this website does a range of sizes for generous boobs www.nursingbra-shop.co.uk/nursing%2Dbras%2Dby%2Dsize/

[jessplussomeonenew]

You can get normal bras and convert them to nursing bras - the kits are under a fiver on ebay.

I wore a bravissimo bikini with a maternity tankini top on top. Worked brilliantly. The bikini fit me after birth while bfing too.
