Hi, I had a c-section a few weeks ago. I gave birth to two wonderful boys. Can anyone tell me how long it takes for the stomach to go back to normal. I have flabby skin below and my stomach still looks like I'm 4 months pregnant. Thanks.

I wish I knew that too. I have a 2.5 month old and my belly is still pudgy too. My Dr told me that your uterus takes 6-8 weeks to get back to it's regular size so that is some of it. I have been researching it and it can take 8-12 months for your body to completely return to it's pre-pregnancy stage. I think in some cases, some women never get their body back 100%. Hope this helps some...
