I delivered 3 months ago and my belly still looks 5 months pregnant some days. I know body takes time but I feel low when clothes dont fit. What helped you slowly feel stronger again?
Realistically, focus on eating clean and small frequent meals, and squeeze in walks whenever u can with the baby. I didnt have time for gym so a pram walk became my workout. Slow but it works. Get doctor ok before proper exercise.
It takes time honestly, the belly doesnt go flat overnight for anyone. Walking daily, decent food and once doctor allowed, some gentle core exercises helped me. Be patient with urself, ur body did something amazing.
Once my doctor gave the green signal I started gentle postnatal exercises and breathing core work, that helped more than anything. Walking daily too. But absolutely wait for that clearance first, the body needs to heal.
First of all, be kind to urself. I used to feel bad looking in the mirror but that loose tummy is so normal after delivery. It does reduce with time, walking and rest. Dont compare with celebs ok, ur doing great.
Please go slow esp if u had a C-section like me. I waited till my doctor cleared me before any exercise. Light walking, eating well and breastfeeding slowly helped my tummy come down. It took months, dont rush ur body.
