"I" is for Insane! In reference to my daughter's boobs!

So, we went to buy bathing suits today, no where special, just our local Wal-Mart because I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something that she will probably lose or grow out of it within the next six months. You know, like the last two $45 bathing suits I purchased. So, we are sticking with the tankini even though at 13 she wants a bikini, but I'm sorry I know some will disagree with me, my 13 year old is not wearing a bikini! That is insane and asking for trouble! After trying on a few suits, we came to realize that we are not going to be able to just buy something off the rack because, well, her boobs are just too big! How did this happen?! It's like the tops will fit here, she's rather thin but the cup sizes made for the tops are too small, she's spilling out of it! That's insane! I was really shocked! I guess she's grown quite a bit since school shopping last fall and the American Eagle sweatshirts tend to hide quite a bit. I can't believe how fast these kids grow up, especially the girls. The rate at which their bodies mature is just insane and unfortunately I don't believe their minds follow. Really, how can they? I just pray we can find some bathing suit for her online that isn't going to cost me a fortune and we still hide her hopefully soon-to-stop-growing boobies. And I pray and the Lord will keep those teen boys away for as long as possible!!! It's insane how much I miss the old flat chested days.....

  1. Nooooooooooooooo!
    I can't imagine, considering how thin she is. I have the boob-fitting issue, and I'm plus size!

    Try landsend.com - they also sell in Sears if you need to try on. That's where we get FireGirl's suit because they're one of the few places you can order different sized tops & bottoms. A little pricey (for me), but you can usually find a decent coupon code.

    Good luck!

  2. I can't believe you just wrote this because we are having the same problem. I have never let my girls wear bikinis- I just don't think it is appropriate, but I was out (by myself) looking for bathing suits for my 12 year old and nothing was appropriate! She is not so much spilling out of the suit as the prints were all so baby-ish in the girls section and of course she can't fit into a woman's size.

    Right now she is wearing mis matched tankini set because that is what works, but I have no idea what is going to happen this summer.

    I don't know why it is so hard to make age appropriate clothes for Tweens and teens.
