Hi All
Since my DD was born 19 months ago I have had a noticeable 'bulge' at my upper abdomen so much so that people constantly ask when I am due again 
For context I was a size 16 prior to birth and actually weighed less on the day I went into labour than I did the day I found out I was pregnant - I ate healthily throughout pregnancy. After giving birth I just thought my tummy would go back to how it was (never flat always had a bit of a tummy!) but the top bit kept getting bigger and bigger.
It is rock solid and painful. I went to the GP today about it and he basically said tough shit nothing we can do. He said he can refer me for a scan to see if it is a hernia but he thinks its 99% a diastasis & it will probably get rejected on 'cosmetic' grounds. I have also had chronic back pain since the birth which I am told this can cause?
So I came out feeling so deflated as I am stuck like this now it seems I feel deformed and I look an odd shape, I have to wear bigger tops to accommodate it and I cant sit close to my desk as its in the way!!
Has anyone had one - is there anything I can do excersize wise to get rid of it or make it smaller?!
