C-section belly

[blue122]

Does having a c-section always cause you to have a belly afterwards or is it just the same as giving birth naturally?

Mine was fine afterwards.

I now have a bit of a belly, but that's down to chocolate, not the CS.

Mine is fine - if anything I had a belly before I was pregnant and now it’s gone down lots!

Mine went down very quickly after my first. Not feeling like I will be as lucky this time!! X

Thank you everyone! Tried so hard to stay fit and healthy throughout pregnancy and now possibility of a c section and was worried it would all be for nothing!!😩

I put on loads of weight in pregnancy I lose 1.5 St so my tummy is bigger than before but that's because of overeating.

I did find my lower abs were asleep for a loooong time. I've been doing lots of slow steady toe taps to try and switch the muscles back in.

Postnatal pilates is good for this!

I had a flabby belly for a couple of weeks after, they called it jelly belly on post natal, the same apparently as giving birth naturally
I was flat stomached before pregnancy and after 6 months was flat stomached again. I didn’t get an over hang. I just hope it’s the same this time.
