C section shelf
What I'd like to know is how are you meant to tell if you have a 'shelf' whilst you're still holding pregnancy weight. Surely you can't tell until you lose the weight and can see if your stomach is flat again?

From the moment they took my dressing off myself and my partner could see that I had a C-section shelf. But for my friend she couldn’t tell that she had one until she was nearly 5 months postpartum x
I didn’t know I had one until my tummy went down after the first few weeks x
I could see mine and there was no way of it going flat, moving my tummy and skin around to where it should be and it just couldnt, i have alot of internal scar tissue i can feel, my second c section tho

I personally don’t think you can for a few months. My belly stayed big for weeks but when it disappeared then I could tell if I did or not. I didn’t get a shelf at all x
