risky business

Let's just say that my current swim-wear just isn't gonna cut it this summer. I mean, I had a baby 8 weeks ago and, well, some things just may never be the same again. I've shed many tears. But a mommy's gotta do what a mommy's gotta do: [deep breath] buyanewbathingsuit.  Whew. I said it out loud.  Some options:




I've never tried a shade or modbe or down east suit before. Kinda need something that will keep everything in place while enjoying the sunshine with a toddler and a baby. Very risky business. Have I reached a point in my life where I actually  need to consider l.l. bean?

Oh my gosh the top one is SO cute! And I know the feeling I have spent more than a few days crying about it....can I get a tummy tuck and boob job already??? Layers has really cute ones, I got one last year and I like it. And lets be honest you look better than anyone i have ever seen that had a baby eight weeks ago.

Ditto with what Katie says. We got some cute suits a few years ago from diviinemodestee.com. I also like the navy polka-dotted one. And HELLO...if you want to feel really good about yourself, come sit in my yard next to me in my bathing suit. Sadly, my days of looking good are long gone, but I love swimming and water fun way to much to be limited by my lack of sexiness in a bathing suit! YOU GO GIRL! Get the blue one!

First one is my fave. I too am in search of a new suit, been putting it off as long possible, can't any longer as it's over 100 here now...

Alright, I'll just say it. My current swim suit is from Land's End. I love it and I get tons of compliments on it when I wear it. They are cute and are well made--which is important to me at this stage. I don't have tons of experience with those companies you've named except I tried on a modbe suit once and it just didn't hold me in where I needed it to.

I hope you find a great suit!

You totally look amazing for just having a baby! I love all the swimsuits the top is my favorite and i tried it on but it wasn't flattering on my small bust! Anyway, good luck!
