Tummy tuck after 2nd child? Any tips to avoid?

I'm pregnant with my first after trying 2 years. We're so excited. Now my mom tells me to expect to need a tummy tuck after 2nd child or whenever we want to stop having children since I'm 5'3". I'm technically obese on the BMI charts at 177, guess I should be around 135-140 to be in healthy range. I'm walking 3 miles a day and eating healthy during pregnancy. Is there anyway to avoid having a tummy tuck? My sister in law is my same height and after her 2nd she had one. I just found that out so I'm terrified. I would really like to not have to do that! Any tips as I'm only 6 weeks along and hope to be really healthy so afterwards it's not as hard to bounce back. Thanks everyone!
