Post partum belly

After a c section 2 months ago my belly is really saggy with very crepey skin. The rest of me is still slim...will this ever retract even a little bit? I know it shouldn't matter but I used to like wearing dresses etc and now I'm like slim all over except for this chunky flabby belly...the Dr said that's me forever now

That doctor is talking crap. Your skins elasticity will slowly recover but you can use products and exercise to fix that. Our bellies stretched out for our babies and take a while to get their tone back. I had extra skin and a looser core for a few months and then it toned back up. By 12 months pp you wouldn’t have even known id had a baby let alone a section xx

@Sarah thankyou ❤️. I don't need it to be perfect again but any improvements would be great.

I compared mine to a deflated water bed. It was just loose and like jelly. I went to mummy yoga, started jogging again and after about 4/5m started core work and it got stronger every week. Like muscle memory came back online xx

I'm 3 months post section and mine has started getting firmer already hun, so your doctor is talking absolute rubbish

It will calm down a bit definitely xx
