Notes:

With the transition from D/C# to D/B, it is much easier to use the 4th finger to play the bass notes with a smooth transition from chord to chord.
Technically, the minute you move your first finger to play the D/B chord, the A note becomes G due to the exposed open string. You are actually playing Dsus4/B but it still sounds fine.
D/B in its true form requires a complete shift of all fingers which can be a little awkward in this case... the choice is yours.
