Not the most exciting thing right? I finally broke down and got a new swimsuit for the summer, since the new boobs won’t fit in the old ones! When I am nursing, I have a whole new sympathy for large chested women. It’s sort of like getting an instant boob job overnight. You can’t just throw on any shirt or bra, or bathing suit for that matter! Shirts I wouldn’t have thought twice about wearing before are skin tight in the chest area now! 😉
Which brings me to my search for the right suit. I actually ordered a bathing suit from Athleta this time. I figured with free shipping and returns, I couldn’t go wrong. I decided on a tankini, so I wouldn’t feel self conscious about the abdominal region. I’m all about feeling comfortable when you’re on the beach. I got the Rio Vista Banded Halter:
I ordered based on the sizing chart which showed a medium on top. I still look pretty busty, but I think I will just have to get used to it. I am in love with the colors and print on the top (it reminds me of the ocean around here), and it’s very comfy. For the bottom I chose the Rio Vista Medium Tide bottom:
I stuck with a small in the bottom, and it fit fine. I can’t wait to put it to good use this summer–if only the weather would cooperate! 🙂
