A few months back, I caught a lot of flak on two separate occasions for bearing my baby bump in a bikini and monokini while spending the day poolside with my family. Apparently people online have some strong opinions about showing your pregnant body and what’s appropriate to wear. I got a lot of comments like these:

"Too much showing. Not suitable for a pregnant mom with a 7-month-old."
"Ewww. She’s pregnant! Cover that bump up! No one wants to see that!!"
"NOT motherly AT ALL. In future years, she will surely regret that unflattering picture. COVER up, girl!"
"That suit is barely suitable for a nonpregnant woman, let alone a pregnant one!"
"Have a little more modestly when you’re pregnant!!! Geez!!!"
"I mean, it’s OK for a younger girl to wear something like that, but a mom of (soon-to-be) four, having a baby bump, that suit doesn’t seem, ahem, 'suitable'"
"She’s pregnant and wearing this? She’s just trashy and looks like a hooker!"

I have to say, I’m super proud of my bump. Why should I be embarrassed and cover up something that’s the greatest gift a woman can experience? A pregnant woman in any shape or size is beautiful! Pregnancy is an amazing journey, and we preggers should be able to show it off. I call it BUMP PROUD! Embrace your growing curves and burgeoning belly.
More momvo after the break.
