How do some people have a flat scar and no overhang? Even straight away

I was a size 6 before pregnancy and wasn’t even big so can’t put it down to excess weight. Is it the sewing technique? Scar too tight?

I think it’s exactly that, and maybe just genetics? I was a 6 prior to pregnancy too and now I’m a 8. My overhang has definitely gotten better but definitely still there. I’m 4 months PP, over time it does seem to be getting better

@Alisha ahhhh so annoying 😔 it’s not the scar itself that gets me down or the c section but the bulge. Xxx

I have the same overhang but discovered csectioncorrection on instagram! Check them out :)

How many weeks PP are you? Have you looked into scar massage?

Can you post pictures please

i know a lot of people say it’s down to genetics but i dont think it is. i think your body just decides to do whatever it wants to at that moment in time. like myself for example, i was a size 8-10 before pregnancy, had a c-section with my twins and i was back in my old clothes less then a week, whereas my mum had to go up a few sizes after all of hers and never gone back down. i don’t think that’s a solid reasoning behind it, but that’s just my opinion :)
