There's a pic to demonstrate why our tummies look so weird @tiffany09

Yeah it's not unusual @chelsea0820 it's fairly common in pregnancy and yeah it isn't only in people who have a strong abdomen before I guess. I've found out more info so it's when the linea alba (the area between the two transverse abdominal muscles) gets stretched out and the two transverse abdominal muscles that are normally connected at the linea alba separate from each other essentially. I guess it's not a super big deal but you have to be careful and let them heal back together post pregnancy because sometimes your organs can herniate at the linea alba because the tissues are so stretched weak and thin. So yeah it doesn't mean yes we will have pooches ha but it means your being stretched to the max and be careful protect your body kinda thing. I'm gonna change the way I get up now more like roll on my side instead of just sitting straight up and there's pregnancy transverse exercise you can do to strengthen that area too. ссылка

and I never worked out before and ive had this with my entire pregnancy. and the doctor never once said anything about it.

my doctor said its just your belly muscles

@lindsrenee,

omg mines does that all the time! 😱 I didn't know it was a name for it and I honestly thought it was just her laying there lol

Yeah where when you lean forward the center of your abdomen sticks out all weird looking :) @tiffany09

Yeah I hope so :(

And I had a pooch after wards. But if u continue to work out and stuff after u have the baby it should go away.

Did your stomach go back to normal after your first pregnancy

It's because u had abs and stuff before. I had it too with my first pregnancy. It's not harmful. I asked my dr bout it and she said its normal in athletic girls or girls that work out and stuff.
