Its been almost 4 months since my delivery and the belly is just not going. Im breastfeeding so im also scared to do crash diet or anything. What worked for you mommies without affecting milk supply?
After my C-section I was so eager to lose the tummy but I had to wait for proper healing. Gentle walking was all I did for the first couple months. Please dont start core workouts until your doctor checks your scar and clears you.
I'm still pregnant but planning my comeback already haha. From what trainers say, wait for the postnatal clearance, start with breathing and pelvic floor work before any hard ab stuff. Doing it too soon can cause harm, so go in the right order.
I delivered 4 months back and the belly takes time, be patient with yourself. I started with short walks once cleared, light home food and breastfeeding actually helps the uterus shrink. It's a slow process, dont rush into crunches early.
Honestly with a newborn I had no time for gym, so I kept it simple. Walks with the pram, stairs instead of lift, and home cooked meals over snacking. Slow but it worked without me carving out hours.
Realistically it took me months both times, the body needs that. Don't crash diet, especially if breastfeeding. Walk daily, eat balanced, sleep when you can. Once your doctor clears you, add gentle core and it'll come along.
