I got a maternity cozzie from Additions when I was pg

It was a size 16 but it was enormous and fit me right up to the end when I was a size 20 or thereabouts

If I could find my maternity stuff (I am trying to find it for someone else but dh has Put It Away Somewhere Safe) I would gladly send it to you

It's a tankini, black with ruched sides

I have big norks too and iirc they were firmly tethered, I think it had internal support

I will look in the far flung corners of the attic tonight

I have a size 20 black maternity swimming costume from Mothercare that you can have if you don't mind wearing one that's second hand.

twinsetandpearls · 28/05/2008 14:30

Yes be careful with your boobs, I bought what I thought was a very flattering swimsuit from marks and my tits fell out the minute I started to swim much to dd amusement.

anchovies · 28/05/2008 14:31

Have ordered and returned the next one, also the brown one they do. Very big in the body department but was miles too small in the boob area. Am same size as you but smaller boobs. I ended up with this one

anchovies · 28/05/2008 14:31

oh and an 18 was as big as a 20 anywhere else

misdee · 28/05/2008 14:34

john lewis one looks good but again i think my boobs would be falling out all the time.

OP posts:
anchovies · 28/05/2008 14:35

I did slides in it and they stayed in (am a DD) it is more restrictive on than it looks!

themoon66 · 28/05/2008 14:37
