Totally not looking forward to summer...

Is anyone else loathing having to put on a swimsuit???
Before DS2, I wore a 2 piece despite having some stretch marks on my stomach and around the upper thigh/hip area. I was in the best shape of my life and I was extremely happy with myself. (I snagged DH after having DS1 and if his sexy self found me attractive, I had it made!)
This time around I feel like it's harder to get rid of the flab and my stretch marks did multiply...maybe not by a lot, but when I look in the mirror all I see is stretch marks. I made a comment the other day about not wearing a 2 piece or maybe a tankini from now on and DH said he didn't see why I wouldn't continue wearing my bikinis. I'm extremely self-conscious and I know where it comes from, but I feel like I don't want to look gross. And I know I shouldn't care what other people think, but I don't want to be that couple where people are like "WTF is he doing with her?"
Re: Totally not looking forward to summer...
I'm not self-conscious at all so it doesn't bother me. But I've never worn a bikini, only tankinis or one piece suit, so I don't have to change anything.
BTW, did you ever figure out what going on with your LO's skin?
It wasn't my favorite moment but I really didn't care. Spending time w my baby was so great and more important and like Navy said, no one cares they're all focused on the baby
I did! It was
