Its hard for me to tell now that I'm pregnant again, but I had the hang and I was back below pre-preg weight very quickly due to a lot of stress & illness after DS was born. I'm a really small frame and the hang was still there. Kate - I think you're right, the hang does have a lot to do with stretched skin - the thing that bothers me the most about my c-section scar is how it gives you kind of a permanent tuck in where the cut is IYKWIM? It alters the way your body would naturally fall and I think that contributes to the hang as well. My scar for me is more psychologically challenging than anything. I wear hipster knickers & bikini bottoms and there is no chance my scar can be seen, maybe mine is lower?
