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

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
