So...I found out (8 months after giving birth) that my belly button is herniated and my stomach muscles probably aren't going to go back together. I'll have to get surgery for the hernia but at least my running isn't affected by the weird muscles. Embrace the strange bellies, ladies! I run without a shirt and feel amazing for it!
@ysalais, Don't worry about it! It's proof that you're an awesome mom. Just tell them it's your badge of honour 😊
@heatherfeather, oh wow! Same here,everyone talks about my belly button and I'd try to hide it lol
@ysalais, Because I'm so active, I can make it worse over time. The only problem with surgery is that you're unable to pick anything up while it's healing, so I'm not sure when to get it fixed. :/ And, of course, if I get pregnant again it'll just undo the surgery since it'll pop, like you said. Everyone thought it was the cutest thing ever, haha!
My belly was like that after my son and will be the same after my daughter 😩
