Bikini for me, I find swimsuits look a bit frumpy & don't suit my body shape at all. But it's all about how you feel showing off your tummy. I haven't got any stretchies and my tummy is pretty flat again. If you're a bit unsure you could always go with a tanikini - a halfway point

Im lucky enough to not have no stretch marks and have a flatish stomach. Just have this thing in my head that mums should wear swimsuits lol. I dont have a problem wearing a bikini think im just worried others may think its not right. silly of me I know. And I should

Also whats etiquette at a local swimming pool. I cant remember last I went swimming and I dont wamt to stroll into a local pool to be frowned at lol x

I wear a bikini in the local pool too.

I guess as long as your covered in the right places then it's ok

Bikini, especially if you have a flat tummy and no stretchies! I still wear sheer clothes and short shorts, I don't care what mums are 'supposed' to wear
