C section soft tummy

How long did it take you for your belly to go back to pre-pregnancy? I’m 3 months PP and still my belly is soft and I have some loose skin. Back to home workouts 3-4 times a week 10K steps a day, but still 10lbs left to go!

I can’t remember exactly how long but I remember my stomach was soft for agesss I don’t remember looking back to my normal self till about 7/8 months I’d say? Just a rough guess but it really was a lot longer than I expected x

Honestly somewhere between 9-10 months pp I returned to basically my pre-pregnancy weight and flat stomach. Although still 1-2 jean sizes up because my hips got wider. I remember being very discouraged around 3-4 months because I thought I should have been back to normal but truth is I was still healing

I don’t think I’ll ever be back to pre pregnancy 🤦🏼‍♀️😞

I’ve found that my stomach is harder after the birth than it was before pregnancy. But still round 🤷‍♀️

Same 3 months pp and no changes even 2 kg up. 😭

I’m 3 months pp too and although my stomach is flat again my whole body has changed so my hips are wider and I’m carrying abit of extra weight on my legs and my hips, I’ve started working out a lot but think the actual the shape of my body has completely changed xxx

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
