i learned this trick from a woman i used to work with who at the time just had her 5th child. she said the secret is wearing a girdle for at least 6-8 weeks. your muscles - and everything else that had to get pushed out smashed and repositioned to make room for your little blessing -have all essentially been displaced stretched beyond their limit. you have to "retrain" your stomach muscles to hold everything in place - back to their original position and not bulging out making you appear pregnant. i know this works because my sister and her own daughter did not use this trick - both still look pregnant to this day. it worked for me for both of my pregnancies i was back to my original weight and shape. i hope it works for you as well.
i iook like i'm 8 months pregnant. when i'm not. i am 5'-7" and weigh 165 lbs but all my life was never over 115 lbs until 6 months into my pregnancy where i gained 86 lbs. i look "normal" in the sense that i do not look fat and have no cellulite or hanging skin but if i don't suck in when i'm standing i look like i'm 8 months pregnant i have actually had people tell me i look good for being so far along. i have tried exercising and dieting and had success and lost weight but with no change to my stomach. help
