Spinoff to mommies with gut post--what are you going to wear this bathing suit season?

Just wondering if you mommies could recommend a good bathing suit or other ideas for the beach. I have never been more embarrassed about my stomach... its already over a year since I've given birth and the rest of me is thin but I still look pregnant.

What are you going to wear on the beach?

Right there with you - I'm opting for tankini's. Now if they only made thigh-kini's I'd be set.

Ladies- I had to go to Mexico when I was 7 months PP and was DREADING it. Well- I FOUND a PERFECT bathing suit. It's a swim dress and I LOVE it. I wore that sucker like crazy- WITHOUT a wrap. It had just the right amount of coverage but did NOT look like a tent at all.

This is the one I bought

Wanted to add- what I really love about this suit is that it is an A-line, so it gave the illusion of a small waist, without showing the mess that is my stretched belly.

Too bad I'll have a BIG belly this summer- so I'll have to wait till next year to wear it again.....

I honestly feel that some bikinis are more flattering than some one pieces - I find that bikinis that have an ahtletic look to them are pretty flattering....

ohhh I love it!

I have serious issues. My stomach cannot show at all! So I should be in a one piece, but my boobs are so much bigger then my bottom, that boobs are in a size 16, bottom is a 10.

went tankini shopping...I need one long enough so that my belly never shows, with super duper support for my sag bags.

I am overweight and just came back from a cruise.

This suit was my fav. The top is not form fitting so even if i pushed out my stomach, you couldn't notice.

Ahhh..... glad to help. Here's something even better..... I noticed when I looked for the pic that it is ON SALE. I got it for 68.00 in February.

BTW- I just tried it on with my 4 month baby bump- and it STILL looks good!Chat Icon

Its not flattering when there is a saggy stretched out belly hanging over the bottom part!!! That needs to be covered and hidden from anyones eyes to see!!!
