C Section Shelf

Any tips for minimizing the appearance of a c section overhang? I’m almost 8 months pp and had an emergency c section- due to baby girl’s positioning my scar is lower on one side then the other and the overhang is way worse on the lower side. 🙃 Feeling lopsided and not loving the poofiness above my scar. Any advice about healing diastasis recti also appreciated 🙏

Scar massage is amazing with the proper oil, I used NAQI skin optimising oil. Also I started by using a gua sha which really was great.

@Katy I'm 2 years pp and wasn't told any of this. Do you think it's too late to try the techniques you recommended?

Massage in the shower or after a hot bath in all directions for scar mobilization! Stay hydrated to beat bloat. And dare I say it, intermittent fasting helped me with general ‘poof’.

Massage, cupping and core exercises. Be patient, its gonna take some time. But it might never be 100% gone.

@Chautauqua apparently it’s never too late! I follow 360mama on instagram. There are also scar massage practitioners in the UK - info on where to find them is through 360mama. Hope it helps!

@Katy It does, thank you!
