@carlakayfitness: They told me surgery would fix it. But surgery doesn’t fix pressure. 2 kids. 3 years postpartum. 1 umbilical surgery (Nov 2023). And no… I did NOT get a tummy tuck. Here’s what most women don’t realize 👇 An umbilical hernia is often a symptom not the root cause. If your deep core isn’t functioning properly If your pressure isn’t controlled If your diastasis is still open You’re just patching the surface. That’s why I focused on: ✔️ Deep core activation ✔️ Proper breathing ✔️ Pressure control ✔️ Safe postpartum progression ✔️ NO crunches. NO random planks. NO ego training. I rebuilt my foundation first. And that’s what protects your results long term. ⚠️ These exercises MUST match: – Your diastasis width – Your healing stage – Your surgery history – Your pressure pattern You can’t copy random ab workouts from the internet. If you’re postpartum and dealing with: • A mommy pouch • Diastasis • Umbilical hernia • Or you’re trying to avoid a tummy tuck Comment “CORE” and I’ll send you where to start 🤍 #postpartumrecovery #diastasisrecti #umbilicalhernia #deepcore #tummytuck
