I just recently had a baby (7 months ago) and during pregnacy by abdominals "separated"...I was just wondering if my abs will stay this way or if there is anything that can be done to bring them back together?

Thanks

As I would love to answer this for you, this would be a wonderful question for your doctor. As well as exercises that he/she would approve of and to what degree. Cardio and diet can really help get back to pre pregnancy form. good luck.

Thanks ganstershoes!!

It's strange, I'm actually back to my pre pregnancy weight, it's just that my abs have definitely separated and this changed the shape of my waist.

I do have full approval to resume all forms of exercise!!!

Has this happened to anyone else out there?...

i also just had a baby (10 months ago) it seems like your body will never go back to normal. but just give it time. a feww months ago i thought my stomach would never go back to normal, but with the rught exercises and diet it looks better all the time
