Diastasis Recti

How long did it take to shrink/heal diastasis recti with exercises after 2nd/3rd baby. I know I'll get there eventually but I'm at my wits end not being able to wear normal clothes because the top of my stomach sticks out.

Mine has gone from 6cm gap to 1.5cm gap in 4 months of regular (and very boring) ab exercises, so it can be done! I had very little progress the first 2 months and then quite a bit of improvement over a month. I think it’s probably very variable person to person. Progress for me felt slow but glad I kept going.

Can you tell if you have it while you’re pregnant or is it something they pick up on after? X

@Lottie your stomach will go in a point when trying to move from a laying position to a sitting position. It's best to roll on your side and sit up to prevent it, but just happens naturally sometimes

Ahh okay! I hope yours resolves, sending positive vibes 🫶🏼

The belly kind of goes into a cone shape when you have it. I've deffo seen it on me a few times but do try to get up and down from bed on my side where I can and sit up straight too x
