So, I'm 41, had DD2 almost 2 years ago. I'm the slimmest I've probably ever been - size 6/8 & in no way is this a stealth boast, I struggle to put weight on. This wasn't always the case & I'm usually a size 10/12.
Standing up my tummy looks fine & I have pretty good stomach muscles (always been a mystery as I'm sporadic with regular exercise). However, when I lean forward, my skin crinkles & puckers around my belly button - this makes me a bit self-conscious when having sex....
I try to be thankful for what I've got - 2 gorgeous girls & my body has done an amazing thing. I was just wondering if there is anything I can do to tighten this skin? I didn't have this after DD1, so I'm sure my skin has been stretched too much & my age may mean it's elasticity is not as it once was.
The skin on my boobs can be a little crinkly too - my boobs were much bigger before & get massive when I'm pregnant!
Would putting weight on improve this? Fill me out a bit more? Can exercise tighten this skin at all?
Suspect that there's nothing that can be done!
