Did you have diastasis recti? If you did dis you go to see the doctor with concerns as to why your belly hasn't gone down? Or your belly button hasn't gone in either?

Did the doctor refer you to physio? Did you self refer? And has your belly gone flat again? I would love to know other womens experiences as I am 6 months pp and my belly button is still out and I still look very pregnant.
