Hell no, I haven't worn a bikini since I was 18 and that was in 1992....LOL My stretch mark's aren't that bad. My skin is horrible. I need a tummy tuck....
me too0 -
yep.. the smaller the better! a girls gotta tan!0

I had 19 miscarriages prior to the birth of my son and the marks that I have come with pride and I thank God that he allowed me to have them. I will proudly wear my bikini again, once I can.0

I'm worried about this too, not so much the stretch marks, but will my tummy ever lose the saggy bit? I've got dry skin anyway so worry that it won't have enough elasticity to go back to vaguely normal. As long as I'm not all saggy I'd be very happy to wear a bikini and show off my stretch marks, I actually think I'd be sad if they went completely, that's weird isn't it.0

Yep!! And i feel more comfortable than i ever have. Plus, those stretch marks are because I gave birth to a precious baby boy, i own them, not one bit ashamed of them.0

I am planning on it - after all stretch marks are just the proof that we went through it all0

Man, I wish LOL
My stomach is not firm enough and my stretch marks are so deep its horrible.
Maybe one day....0 -
Once I get this loose skin toned up I will! My abs are slowly but surely getting leaner and I can't wait till I'll feel more comfortable in a bikini. Right now I stick with my tankini so my jiggly tummy skin doesn't show lol. My son is 3 1/2 now and my stretch marks arent quite as bas as they were. Maybe by the time my muscles are more toned and less fat, the marks will be even less noticable. Either way, I'll rock it after my hard work pays off! It was hard work to grow that little guy, and it's been hard work getting fit. I think BOTH are awesome things to flaunt.0

Not this summer.. but mostly because I found one piece that I just looove. I'm about 10 or so lbs above my goal and then I am ordering this for next beach season: http://www.unique-vintage.com/best-seller-vintage-inspired-swimsuit-style-black-polka-bikini-p-2368.html
I love the retro style and the higher waisted bottom.. I think it'll nicely cover up my mommy marks, haha. I0 -
I am definitely not 100% comfortable with my stretch marks and new 'loose' stomach, but I wear a bikini proud & don't let anyone know how I really feel. Faking confidence sometimes gives you real confidence.0

From a man's perspective: at my age, I see stretch marks on a woman with young children and to me it is a badge of honor, that shows she has worked to get her body back in shape. I would not worry, be comfortable and wear what makes you feel good. Keep up the good work!0

I was at Rock USA in Oshkosh, WI this past week. There were approximately 30,000 people there of all shapes and sizes. I love people watching. I saw so many ladies wearing bikini tops and shorts because it was so darn hot. Many were obviously in their 40's like me with tons of stretch marks. They were rockin' those tops like no ones business. That really gave me the confidence that when I lose this fat, I will be wearing one too. My husband kept hinting that maybe next year at Rock USA, I could wear a sexy bikini top. That gave me even more confidence that I could wear one some day.0

I'm not confident enough yet to wear a proper bikini, so I wear a cutaway swimsuit.
I really like it, and it covers up that loose bit on my lower belly.0 -
Similar to this one:

I looked at that bikini and somehting like that would be perfect! It would cover my stretch marks (except on my inner thighs). Well once I got in better shape of course. Lol.0 -
