omg advice from fit mommies plz

My baby’s almost two and my tummy is not at all where I want it to be. I had a c section. What do you guys use to get rid of or fade stretch marks? & what exercises have you guys done to tighten your skin and tone up again in your tummy region? I would post a picture but hell no lol 😩

I took up Pilates and damn did that work my core! Never had core muscle ache before like it and I used to be a gym bunny. Definitely made a difference and very low impact. I just did home Pilates on Apple fitness x

Did you check if you had transverse abdominal muscles separation? Did you heal It? Deep core exercises and pelvic floor exercises are great for strength

I used coconut oil during the pregnancy religiously. And after pregnancy. It worked great. Also, I started watching my nutrition and paid attention to the amount of protein I consume. Added some regular workouts to it and I’m on my way to abs of steel lol.

Scar massage, breathing exercises and postnatal core exercises

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
