Something similar was posted a while back, but I need additional help...

I do water aerobics class once a week, and I take DS swimming regularly. I'm crazy-big busted, so need something that has a lot of support on top - but not a soft-cup bra, which I overflow and weigh down. It also needs to be baby-proof, so that DS can't haul down the straps. I can't handle tankinis because my elephant belly is too soft and it flops out of the top of the bottoms...

So what I want is a one-piece, supportive, durable bathing suit that is going to last longer than one season, and that is not too expensive. Available in Canada would also be nice...

Have you seen this bathing suit somewhere?

Redbook magazine just ran an article on the newest bathing suits for real women/moms. Unlike some magazines, i think these women actually had visible flaws that were helped by the bathing suit choices. Miracle Suit seemed to be a good choice for most of them, although AT's "Loft" and Calvin Klein had a few nice ones that are probably orderable online and through department stores like JC Penny's, Macy's, Nordstroms, etc. With Miracle Suit, i think you can order your cup size (up to DD, although I know you're bigger, it's a start) and target your trouble spots like thigh trimmer, tummy hider, etc. All these bathing suits came from cybersuit or cyberswim.com, but you can get them cheaper at www.eddiebauer.com

I like this one, it handles ample breasts well & looks very sexy:

This one is more modest, minimizing the bust, but elegant & classic:

This one has the most coverage, helping keep anxious hands away from the breasts, everything is spill proof, and it's easier to swim in:

This one almost emphasizes the breasts with the bright color on top, but it's a nice tummy minimizer with the intense lycra:
