Diastasis Recti
(abdominal separation)
How to find out if you have it and what to do about it.
Diastasis Recti is a relatively common issue that plagues Mamas after having babies. It becomes more and more prevalent the more babies you have.
Diastasis Recti is a separation in your abdominal muscles. There is, literally, a gap between the right and left side of your abdominals. A severe case of this separation manifests itself by looking like you are still 4-5 months pregnant after about a year post-birth. This is a simple way to identify it but diagnosing diastasis recti is definitely trickier than that. Watch the video below to learn how to test yourself. |
