Line up stomach

I am 4 weeks and still have mine. I think it will eventually start to fade within a few months if not sooner. I’m sorry it’s making you feel awful about your body but just remember that you are warrior and this is just a momentary battle wound. Hang in there mama!

My boy is over 10 months and it’s a lot fainter but still there. It’s different for everyone, but it’s definitely going to take longer than a few days I’m afraid! It’s just another sign that your body did something amazing and made a whole new person
