Did anyone have diastasis recti after pregnancy?

(separated abs) What did you do to improve things?

A PT with a woman's health certification can help. There's a whole protocol I used to have to know. I'll message it to you tonight when I find it.

I just joined the mutu moms focus program, developed by a PT. I have only been doing it a few weeks but my core is definitely stronger.

I had no idea this had a name, but it's exactly what I have thanks to my last pregnancy.

hungrycaterpillar, would you mind sending me the same info? I would love to know what I could be doing to fix this.

No. But I remember taking post natal yoga after DS1 was born and the yoga teacher basically scared the shit out of all us moms about doing any type of ab work before our kiddos were like, 12w old, in order to prevent this.

Can I jump on this, too?  My youngest is 2.5 and I still look like I'm 6 months pregnant
