I have had 4 pregnancies (2 living children, 3 angels with God). My stomach has been stretched so much in the last 4 years, it is just gross. I am currently about 15 pounds away from my goal weight, my problem is I hate my stomach. I think I should be fitting smaller sizes of clothes for the weight I am at. I really need some advice on losing the gross, jiggly belly.

Hi Bonnie,

I have three children of my own so I understand the tummy struggle. I think you will find that excercises designed to tighten your abs will be very helpful but it's going to take some time. That many months of pregnancy can wreak havoc on your tummy, so you need to be patient and work hard. Don't hate your tummy, you earned it the hard way and it's just one of the many battle scars of motherhood. Someone with more knowledge than I have will be along here shortly to give you more specific tips on ab excercises so don't dispair.
