I`m the same, I know Ethan is only 3 months old but by now after my other two boys my tummy was back to pre pregnancy but this time it`s not, I get quite upset about it at times, especially when I try my clothes on and nothing fits, like you I had a fairly flat stomach..
One thing which is different this time is I was diagnosed with separated stomach muscles at my post natal check up so I`m thinking perhaps this is why my stomach hasn`t gone down.
Ethan was also born by c/sec.
Sorry I have no idea`s at all as to what to do but have heard pilates are good for flattening stomach`s but we don`t have any pilates classes around here.
(Even though this is an old thread, I'll reply anyway!!)
Awww honey I can't believe people have asked you that!!!!! You do NOT look like you are still pregnant - just a beautiful woman who has had a baby!!!!
My tummy went back to normal somewhat (except for the little sunshade part at the bottom ) after my first csection, but that took a strict diet and exercise routine, that I simply didn't have time to do after Miss M.
I will be doing to same diet and exercise plan after this one is out though - but I don't think I'll really ever get rid of the "sunshade" - hard to tone muscles that have been cut!!
Don't be so hard on yourself - I think you look great!
I try not to let it get to me... but it is just those embarrasing moments when someone asks when I'm due that really throw me! I did do some Pilates for a little while, but that didn't help (maybe I should have stuck with it longer!!) Anyway.... I have made the decision to return to it, as it is done with Physios and if anyone will be able to help me with it, it should be them!
