    I'm only 4 lbs away from my pre-preggo weight, but I have this pooched out belly...I look like I'm 4 or 5 months pregnant (w/ a singleton, that is!). It's so strange b/c the rest of my body looks like my normal pre-preggo body...except for this giant pooch. When will this go away? Or at least go down? I know I will NEVER have the same body, willing to accept that, but this 4 month-looking belly needs to go away. What the heck man!? URR!

    Some are luckier than others. It's been two years and I still have 25lbs of baby weight to lose. 15 from the twins and 10 from ds who was born 21 months before they were. And yes, I have a flabby belly from stretched out skin.

    I'm there with you. I have 10 lbs. to go, but this belly is disgusting! I can't wait til it's gone.

    You probably have diastasis. I do, and it looks like I am pregnant. It has gone down a little though. I got the book Lose Your Mummy Tummy and that has exercises you can do to help it.
