Water Birth Clothing

Hi mamas, I'm due in 3 weeks and I'm planning a water birth but I don't know what to wear. Have no bikini and want to bf so need to get my tatas out easily. Any suggestions welcome. Hope you're all well.

Why do you need to wear something in the water?

A stretchy sports bra should be enough.

I just wore the bra I was already wearing in the pool, I did take a bikini top but didn’t even bother taking it out my bag

I’m pretty sure I was just naked in the pool. I might have started off in a bikini top. But I had a long labour and for the midwife to check progress, I had to get on a bed. And so it didn’t make sense to wear wet clothes. In the end I wasn’t able to give birth in the pool, so I did wear a dark, baggy T-shirt to give birth

I’m usually quite a reserved person but just stripped naked and got in the pool. Had taken a vest but this never made it out of the bag (not through lack of time it was just by that point i couldn’t of cared less)

I brought a sports bra thing with me but in the end I just climbed in naked there wasn't much time to think about what to wear. I was already fully dilated and ready to start pushing when I arrived at the hospital

I wore a crop top type bra comfy and stretchy.
