Does extra skin go away after baby?

Question

After losing all the baby weight, should your skin go back to normal? What are some tricks or ways you know to get your prebaby body back?

Answer

Depends on your body but usually there is a little excess skin left. Once the doctor gives the okay you just have to start slow with work outs, walking then jogging then running, things like that then you can start mixing in some weights and ab work outs, a lot of ab work outs worked for me. Not just sit ups but a whole bunch of them that included tightening of the stomach. Planks, even squats with weights, interval sprinting, push ups, things like that!

Answer

The skin is the toughest part - esp in boobs and belly. I'm petite, 5'5 110lbs pre baby for first and I shrunk right back down but still have some extra skin on my belly and my boobs (I went from b cup pre preg to DDD post w nursing and back down to a now before this preg) and it doesn't really go all away. Most of mine did-you can only tell if I bend forward or if my toddler pinches it lol. My best advice is moisturize as much as possible to help w elasticity and help avoid stretch marks, but not much else you can do lol oh and drink water!!

Answer

A lot depends on how your body was before, usually who people who take really good are of themselves will snap back or have minimal issues. I was not one of these people 😁 I've gone up and down quite a bit through three pregnancies. With my first, even though I was overweight, I had a super round awesome bump. Lost weight since then and my other pregnancy bumps have been rounded out with loose skin on the bottom. Not so cute but comes with the territory

I w seen people who have babies and look better after its all diet and excersise u have to tighten it back up I guess but it's genetics too I'm sure :/
