Does the baby belly shift?

LittleMissMe · #1 (**permalink**) 29-09-08, 10:22

too tired and still don't really have time to start working out again but have lost most of the fat from pregnancy through BF ing but my hips are still the same (I'm still a size 14) and I've got this disgusting overhang as a belly which I have to fasten my trousers UNDER! Will this go away naturally or with working out? If working out any recommendations for exercises to get rid of it? Or am I stuck with it for life?!!!! Didn't have this problem after 1st pregnancy as was tiny and hardly changed at all so this is a shock.

I was told it wouldn't go but it seems to have... or perhaps I'm just resigned to it???

Buy nice high jeans hon

there was a lass talking to a group the other day with some serious overhang - she either didn't care or didn't realise.. but omg some high jeans would have been nice... for everyone! she wore a shortish top and lowish trousers... eeow.
