I used to work at Motherhood Maternity and the swimsuits all are two pieces, the bottoms are cut wide in the front and go up over the belly and the tankini tops are cut wider in the front and are longer to go down over the belly.
You never know how big you'll end up getting but the Motherhood stores do have a pregnancy pillow that you can try on with the clothes to get an idea for how they'll fit when you are bigger.
With me, I barely showed with DD1 and wore all regular, non-maternity clothes. With DD2 I showed faster and a little more but wore mostly non-maternity clothes and a few fitted maternity tops. With DD3 I had one pair of maternity jeans, a denim skirt, and a few tank tops (that I still wear because they are comfy!) I LOVED showing off my little belly, hence the bikini. I never got stretch marks, either.
Congrats to you, Lindsey! Best wishes for a happy, healthy pregnancy! My best advice to you is to keep (or start) exercising- even if it is just a daily walk. It will make your labor and delivery SOOOO much easier!
