Sorry I don't have time to figure out how to do a clicky poll. If you are brave enough to wear a suit what kind do you wear?
1) 2 piece bikini
2) A tankini
3) One piece
4) What's a bathing suit?
I have a one piece and a tankini. I hate the tankini since it kind of rides up and shows my stomach which I hate. I haven't worn a 2 piece since I was 10 and my Mom made me wear one for an entire summer. I was traumatized and vowed never to wear one again (I was never exactly skinny and never had a flat tummy so a 2 piece always made me feel self conscious).

After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

Tankini with board shorts.
I'd like to make my way back to the board shorts and bikini top I wore on my honeymoon. Someday!
LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.

Life is beautiful!
Haven't given birth yet, but I don't necessarily have the most flattering body. For the past 3 yrs, I've been in tankinis. The trick is to find one that won't ride up... perferably one that opens up at the bottom so doesn't press into the belly. : )
My fav is from VS and it is a Kenneth Cole. I believe they still have the same model.

I live in a warm weather climate so it's pretty much bathing suite/hard body (gotta love S. Beach) hahaha season all year round
..
Before IF and treatments I could get away w wearing a bikini; I was going to the gym 3 to 4 days a week and doing pilates. Fav bathing sutis are from J.Crew, they fit well and keep for many seasons.
Now 15/20lbs heavier and I am sure there is more that I will gain before this pregnancy is over I have been wearing 1 pieces from Target. I am not investing in expensive suites for the summer and Target actually makes some cute ones..I have 2 black ones that make me feel thinner and have been wearing those to the beach. After baby..uggh who knows??!!
Because we're fancy like that.
Last year I wore rash guard t-shirt and a pair of a water shorts. Can't get much more covered than that! I needed it post-baby x 2 and I'm really fair so the more covered I am, the better.
I also have a tankini that has a miniskirt bottom. I call it my movie star suit because it reminds me of old Hollywood. :-)
I also have a once piece but I've never looked great in them because I have small boobs and wide hips so I always look really bottom heavy.
I've never worn a bikini...not even in my dreams!

I wear a tankini or a one piece (I got a miracle suit 2 summers ago that I like).
Never worn a bikini-though I would love to but I doubt my body will ever look good enough for that.
I wear bikinis. I have a super long body and have bought a "long" one piece before that was still too short. No camel toe/super wedge for me.
I have worn tankinis in the past and they look stupid too because they don't cover my stomach, not even close because of my long torso, and it looks like I am wearing an ill fitting bikini when I have one on.
I wore a bikini when pregnant too...with a cover up:)
This will definately be tankini season. Being pregnant left me covered in stretch marks
No more bikinis ever.
6in vertical scar = tankini for me. That being said - I am actually excited to go buy one because I am weighing less than my pre-pg weight nowadays.. woohoo!
Um, roughly this, except that I'm not pregnant yet...Thinking positive about my IVF, though! LOL
