I had my baby 8 moths ago, but my stomach is still really swollen and painful in the upper abdomen area near the top of my rib cage. three people have asked when my baby is due and i have been too embarressed to admit that i had my baby 8 months ago...
Iwondered if you could give me any suggestions i would be so gratful. I have been to the doctors on three occassions and everytime i have seen a GP he has just said,it takes time for stomachs to go down after pregnancy. I dont believe for one minute that this us the case.

Hi,
I just want to let you know that I have a similar problem. The upper part of my stomach still looks like I am 4 mnths pregnant and my belly button still sticks out. I had a baby boy 10 mnths ago. Everyone tells me give it time however I know that something is just not right. I am very fit and excercise everyday. this is my second c-section. I have no fat on my body and my belly is hard no soft and flabby. I am waiting for my gyn.app. but this is driving me insane because no matter what I do it doesn't help. It's get worse after I eat.

Well, I am just like you I had my baby 1 1/2 years ago and
the same applies for me I have a large hard time just like
I am 5-6 months pregant. No help in sight.
It would be nice if we could actually get a constructive response
to our questions.
