Overhang from caesarean

Morning

I had twin boys 15 months ago by caesarean and wanted to ask if anyone knows if there is anything I can do to get rid of the wobbly tummy and overhang (due to the caesarean)?

Thanks

Morning Fayew. I sympathise. It’s apparently caused by there having been a cut between the muscle and fat, so the fat isn’t being held in place anymore. But it is just fat, so it’s possible to get rid of. I don’t know anything about your general size etc so don’t know how much weight loss applied to you.

It will become just a little ridge once all the fat is gone. I had 2 C sections and am at my lightest ever but that ridge won't go.

It's not noticeable though as my knickers are covering it and everything else is flat.

Only way would be to have plastic surgery but that means a bigger scare from hip to hip.

I suggest you lose the weight and that little ridge is barely noticeable 👍😉

Good luck!

Mine falls exactly on my pants line - nice surgeon 😉

Bigger knickers? 😄

That's a shame though. But really, once the weight is gone, the ridge isn't bad at all.

Part of being a mother I guess.

Love my two teenage boys, grumpyness and all 😜
