Generally, you should order your pre-pregnancy size (in other words, the size you wore before you were pregnant). Our sizing takes into account weight gain and a growing belly all the way to 9 months. When selecting your size, use the measurements chart below as a guide.

Pre-Pregnancy Size      4-6     8-10     12-14    16-18     20   22
Mermaid Maternity® Size    Small  Medium    Large       XL       XXL   2X
Current Bust Measurement* (inches)   36-37.5  38-40 40.5-42.5    43-45   46-48 47-49
Current Hip Measurement** (inches)   38-39.5  40-42 42.5-44.5    45-47   48-50 49-51
 * For bust measurement, measure around the fullest part of your bust
** For hip measurement, stand with feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips
 

For larger bust sizes: If your bra cup size is DDD or higher, you may want to go up 1 size, but we do not recommend going up 2 sizes. For example, if you normally wear a size medium in a fitted t-shirt but your bust measurement falls within the 'Large' box in our size chart, you should order a size large. However, if you wear a size medium in a fitted t-shirt but your bust measurement falls within the 'XL' box in our size chart, we recommend ordering a size large, not an XL.

If you have specific fit questions feel free to contact us. When you try on your swimwear, keep in mind that it will stretch a bit when wet.
