Its been almost 5 months since delivery and the tummy is still there, kapde dont fit properly. Bit frustrated honestly. What worked for u all to reduce it? pls share ur experience.
Mummy made me wear a soft cotton cloth (belly wrap) around my stomach after delivery, and it really helped. But don't rush, eat nutritious food and let your body heal first.
There is no magic shortcut. It took 9 months for your belly to stretch, so give it at least 9 months to go back. Start with gentle walking and avoid heavy workouts too soon.
My mother gave me traditional warm water baths and suggested light postpartum massage, which was very soothing. Breastfeeding also helps the uterus contract faster. Be patient with your body.
Your uterus takes about 6 weeks to shrink back to its normal size naturally. Don't start dieting or heavy exercises immediately, especially if you had a C-section. Ask your doctor when you can start core exercises.
Honestly, who has the time to worry about belly fat when you are barely sleeping 2 hours a night! Just focus on feeding your baby, the belly will gradually reduce with breastfeeding and running around.
