If you’re not willing to spend the Motherhood price,  I found a few affordable maternity swimwear to pick from at WalMart.

Check them out after the fold…

Catalina 2-piece Halter Tankini, $19

Catalina 2-piece Halter Print Tankini, $19

Catalina 2-piece Halter O-Ring Tankini, $19

Don’t let the price discourage you from getting that swim this Summer. It’ll be all worth it trust me. I’d recommend a swim instead of walking on a 98° to 100° weather anytime. I don’t know if it’s any consolation to anyone but both of my pregnancy labors were too easy. On my first 1, I walked a lot in the afternoon. It was Winter in Virginia, which didn’t really give us snow. My labor was only 4 hours. My second one, albeit I had to be induced, once it started, it went like a breeze. My Doctor praised me for being a pro even though I’ve only pushed babies twice in my life, LOL. I don’t know if it’s because I really am a pro at labor or because I exercised during both of my pregnancies. Don’t take my word on that though. Consult your Doctor first .

By the following year, I was wearing a different tankini. Check it out from Burning The Scale .

Britney Spears Fantasy

Burberry Brit (Image : Nordstrom)

Bath and Body Works Cherry Blossom Spray

Bath and Body Works Plumeria.  This is what I used mostly when I was pregnant with my second child. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel sick or anything by it. I even used the shower gel and lotion. The whole collection pretty much. Plumeria is now part of my collection since then.  (Image : Bath & Body Works)

Victoria’s Secret Secret Garden Body Mist (Love Spell, Amber Romance, Pure Seduction, Pear Glace, Berry Skin). Technically there’s 5 of them but as you might have guessed. I use one scent on a particular day, depending on my mood. I don’t spray ‘em all at one time, don’t worry . (Image : VS)

Care to share with me your Top 5 Fragrances as well?

Here at b5media’s Beauty & Style Channel, we feature one blog among our fabulous blogging friends every month and for July, it’s The Scented Life.

Amy writes about all the perfumes and scents you could ever dream off. Personally, I’m very picky when it comes to perfumes. I don’t like strong aromas. I prefer something clean, light and fresh. Which is why I stick to Victoria’s Secret and Bath and Body Wash body sprays. Although when it comes to perfumes, I’m very loyal to Britney Spear’s Fantasy and Burberrry.

So if you’re picky like me, let Amy from The Scented Life guide you on the ABC’s of picking a scent for your life.
