Question

How long does it take for a c-section overhang to go away? or does it ever?

Answer 1

oh gosh. I had my first c-section 9 years ago and I never lost the hanging skin before I had my second c-section a year ago. Now it's twice as bad. No matter what I do the skin won't go back.  

Answer 2

12 months of waiting (and I do Pilate's EVERY day)!!  Another question though.  Does this only happen with a C-Section?

Answer 3

It's been almost 15 months for me and I'm still waiting... I was a size 4 before pregnancy and a size 6-8 now.  I've lost almost all of the baby weight, but the body is forever harmed.  :)

Answer 4

its been 16 months since i had my c-section and i still have the overhang, im thinking in my case its never gonna go away, and most women i know still have theres too.

Answer 5

I'm 20 months after my c-section, and still waiting. Lol. I don't do crunches though, they hurt my back, so I'm not really worried about it. I'm proud to be a momma, and if a guy or another person has a problem with my baby apron, then they are gonna have a problem with the baby, lol.

Good luck!  

Answer 6

Everyones different, I had my son 4 weeks ago and mine is getting smaller. It wasnt huge or anything to begin with but noticeable. It just takes time.I was never a big girl I was a 9 before I got pregnant and Im not back yet...but hey its only been 4 weeks. Just give it time!!
