Dressing for my C-Section Pouch

5 replies

TopshopCropTop · 21/01/2025 18:03

Hi Everyone

I had baby no 2 in February and despite losing almost 4 stone I cannot shift my C-Section podge. Try as I might the baggy belly appears to be going nowhere.

I am looking for tips on what trousers to wear that are more flattering and help to hide it a bit. I’m 32, size 12/14, I have big boobs and wide hips and 5ft 4.

Thanks in advance!!

I’m a bit taller than you, but otherwise very similar. I’ve given up on trousers 😬. I tend to wear dresses and dungarees and find they are much more flattering.

I'm similar size to you, have to wear high waisted EVERYTHING now but not sure it suits me because I'm so short.

@shardlakem yes!! I bought some high waisted wide leg jeans but I feel like I just look stumpy!

@weareallcats im living in leggings and it’s so depressing, especially since I am going back to work soon I am starting to panic. Dresses might be the way to go!

I’m like that but 5’7” and older. I wear a lot of dresses.

Also high waisted loose jeans but I’ve got long legs and they tend to suit me.
