Just curious, I have been getting swimsuit mags in the mail... starting to realize ekkk swimsuit shopping is coming on fasttttt[Poll]

kas80 · March 2012

I am hoping bikini. We'll see though. I need to start a gym routine stat to get everything all tightened up.

bunnyc1246 · March 2012

I am doing a Tankini... stretch marks are too much ;(

cvl105 · March 2012

I'd love to say bikini, especially since I just lost 21 lbs (on top of all the baby weight)!! But I now have stretch marks and my tummy just isn't toned up, so tankini it is.

OpheliaChem · March 2012

I don't want to buy a new suit, so bikini it is!

62406 · March 2012

DH wants me to get a bikini for our trip in May, but between my scars from my lap surgery and my stretch marks, I'll feel a lot more comfortable in a tankini, unless I find a really cute one piece.

Great job with the weight loss!!

I'll be doing the one-piece... I have this super cute one that I can rock. I would LOVE to say bikini, but strech marks make me look like I was attacked by a badger.

I chose bikini, but I also have a tankini that I wear, too. I was very fortunate not to get any stretch marks on my stomach.

kas80 · March 2012

Yeah I have stretch marks all over my stomach. I've decided not to care and if I can get toned up wear a bikini anyway.

Im sorry but that last sentence made me LOL! That is exactly how i would descibe my stomach from stretch marks too! I have these 2 that are so so deep those will never fade i bet

Kymbirleigh · March 2012

I've seen some really cute one-pieces.... While I have zero stretch marks.... I haven't been able to lose the baby weight due to BFing. Yeah, I'm that oddball that didn't lose weight BFing.

CarlaAndJames · March 2012

I've lost all the weight plus a few lbs, but I still have some loose belly skin, plus I got hit HARD by the stretchmark fairy. I told DH my bikini days are over!

mesr · March 2012

i got a really cute one-piece after dd1 was born due to all of the post-baby tummy pudge. i still have the tummy pudge, so i intend to get more use out of my cute one-piece:

Sunidaze · March 2012

I wish to be respectful of those around me and stick to a tankini. I don't have stretch marks, but I also don't have a bikini body.

Telly21182 · March 2012

I said tankini, but that's due to the stretch marks that won't go away. I'd be comfortable in a bikini if not for them. I've been very lucky to lose enough to be close to my goal weight. 10 more lbs!!! And, at 5'9" 10 lbs isn't super noticeable on me since it's got a lot of height to work with. Too bad it is in my tummy though, but I'm OK with a bikini and mini-pooch if the marks go away. Even when I was super thin and underweight as a teenager I had a pooch. Damn genetic makeup!

Ouu! Where did you get this? I love polka dots. I found a two piece polka dotted one at the Tommy Hilfigher (sp?) outlet, but I need more support for my breasts. I looked at VS yesterday, but they were mostly neon. I need some underwire in a color that doesn't draw attention.

O2BaMom · March 2012

I'm offically 15 below my pre-pregnancy weight (thank you myfitnesspal!) but the stretch marks.....ek....so it'll be a tankini for a while.

Love this! I wish I could wear the cute one-pieces that are out now, but because of my tummy pooch, I actually look better in 2-pieces. The tight fabric emphasizes my problem area, whereas if I'm wearing a bikini I can draw attention to my legs or boobs (in a classy way, if that makes sense!)

When I wear tankinis I have to wear the ones that kind of flare out a bit. Also, I think I can't wear one-pieces because I don't have a defined waist which the one-pieces really emphasize!

rattlecanqueen · March 2012

I voted bikini but that's hinged upon me losing/toning this last 18 pounds. Otherwise it'll be a tankini. I do have some liight stretch marks in front of my hips, but they aren't terrible. But I figure, I worked so hard to lose this 60 lbs, I deserver to show it off.

jkchs2003 · March 2012

I will be wearing a tankini unless I happen to lose 20 more pounds between now and the next time I have to wear a suit.

flows912 · March 2012

Tankini. Gone are the days of wearing a bikini .. stupid stretch marks.

hsal · March 2012

I bought a one piece from old navy, control max with ruching, coral with white polka dots! Even though I'm back down to prebaby weight, its not fair to make other people see me in a bikini lol

milesc · March 2012

I'm only 1lb heavier than my pre-pregnancy weight, so I was ready to be a hot momma on the beach with DD.

Ill get to rock a bump though, and im pretty stoked about it. I can't wait to flaunt it this year... While I loved being PG when I was with DD, being in the cold weather months I didn't get to show my bump off NEAR as much as I would have like too.

This year- I'm going to make up for that

aniceucchik · March 2012

one piece, shorts and a shirt....lol..baby #2 tore.me.up...gained 60lbs, but was still up 30 from #1 and have only lost 40...certain things can never see the light of day again...

i got it two years ago, so i don't think this exact pattern is being sold anymore, although there are probably others in the same style. it's made by Ballet and the style is Acapulco. it has a tighter lining that provides some tummy control, which i desperately need. built in underwire bra.

tarahnpaul · March 2012

I had a lot of trouble, both getting pregnant and being pregnant. But stretch marks arethe one thing I didn't get! I feel lucky b/c I know it's just luck of the draw. So bikini it is!

bestmaid6 · March 2012

Not that I was ever going to be a bikini model, but my stomach will never see the light of day again. It's covered in bright red stretch marks. Covered.

I voted one piece, but a conservative tankini would work, too.

runnergrl6675 · March 2012

I hope my bikini. I have 6lbs to lose to get to my "wedding weight" from August 2010. Here's hoping....

kimbo1216 · March 2012

Tankini. I've always done Tankinis. I even wear a skirt or shorts. I don't like the regular cut. No flattering on my body type, imo.

Congrats!! It's so hard to find time with a little one. Be proud

I hope to be in a bikini by summer. I wore a tankini on our cruise this past week. I felt horribly fat even in that. I joined WW and started C25K yesterday, so bring on the beach body! I was lucky to avoid all stretch marks, so all that's stopping me is me and excessive amounts of food right now.

MommaA117 · March 2012

I voted a bikini but I probably will not take off my different shorts. I would like that pre baby though. I had issues with my thighs.

cfisher2008 · March 2012

I'm wearing my old swimsuit- which is a 2-peice with a bit more coverage (not a string bikini). I have not lost all the baby weight, still have stretch marks and a flabby tummy, and was not a skinny-minny to begin with. I'm a size 12 and will rock my 2-peice because I can, and am comfortable with my body. If no one wants to see my jiggly thighs and tummy, then they don't have to look Stick out tongue

DH used to joke the baby was trying to claw its way out.

The_Birds_04 · March 2012

Rocked a bikini on our trip to Cabo and felt very proud of myself. I still have some toning up to do but felt ok enough to not go out and buy all new suits. However I did have to buy some new tops because these milk makers didnt fit in the old ones.

SarahinRichmond · March 2012

I'm going with a bikini this summer. I was very lucky not to get stretch marks and I'm basically back to my pre-baby body. However, gone are the days of string bikinis. My boobs are NOT where they used to be so I will be looking for a bikini with some lift up top!

You have visible scars from your lap? I'm surprised. I have two itty bitty stitches just about my pubic bone (easy to hide) and one in my belly button that you wouldn't notice unless I pointed it out.

I voted tankini since I bought one while I was pregnant...I don't have stretch marks or anything but I'm not confident enough for bikini yet...we'll see if my weight miraculously drops by 20lbs between now and summer.

I haven't lost any from BFing either. I got a cute one piece from Old Navy that helps suck everything in, and I am either walking/ jogging or hittng the gym most days of the week now so I hope to look and feel better by M's birthday.
