I've heard of that before - I think its old school. I don't know if its helps or not, but I didn't do it.

I wouldn't think that would be very comfortable. Give your body a chance; it took 9 months to get where it is and it takes just as much time to get back to where it was.Chat Icon

I had a c/s and worse a post-pardum belt - which helped the incision area. Not sure if it helped my muscles

Congrats!!

My neighbor suggested this to me. She gave birth 3 weeks before me and her tummy seems very flat but she was also very thin before having the baby. She wore this stretchy thing she got from a plastic surgeon. She wore it pretty much all day long as much as she could handle it. She lent me hers and I tried it a couple times but it annoyed me so I didn't bother.
