Mama no you're right. They will never go away. But they fade. Too the point you don't see them. As for not wearing a swimsuit that's up to you. But they have soooo many that will flatter post baby body. I won't wear my bikini for a while but after six weeksyou can bet I'll be back into surfing lol. Point is its not that bad. As for their nipple and fat vag . It happens. I was there same way after my son. It was so puffy but 3-5 months later she was back to normal so were the nipples. Its hard to go thru I know. Just keep a positive look on it. Try getting a mini makeover to make yard feel sexy in your new curves. I'm holding twins and my a$$ is like a hippo. In a good way because I've always had a flat butt lol

I'm the weird one who's embarrassed by the parts no one is going to see like my vajayjay lol its so fat looking now hubby says he don't mind but when I look in the mirror I hate it :( and my nipples are huge but my boobs forgot to grow with them which makes them even bigger. I know its for my baby and my hubby's says its still sexy but darn it I just can't get used to this lol

I'm not going to hide in sweats or hoodies, but you definitely won't catch me in a swimming suit. I can lose the weight and all that but the stretch marks won't every go away.

Ladies,  these are our battle scares! Wear them proudly! We've been blessed with the gift of giving life. That's a mirical in itself. Yea so we get stretch marks,  sore and some times saggy boobs and a body that wasn't quite pre baby. But guess what? It will get back to normal but they scares are still there. Rock what you've got! You won't see me hiding in sweat pant or a hoodie the rest of my life. Why should you?

Me! I feel so ugly because of my stretch marks. No more swimming, or feeling sexy for me.
