What does your belly look like after birth

I know your stomach doesn't completely flatten out but how much did yours bulge out after birth? Did ylu still look pregnant? Or did you slim out right after birth? I'm 32 weeks and have so far gained 17 pounds

Everyone is different. Some goes down and some don't. I didn't do anything to lose my stomach or make it go down. Right after I had my baby I just went back to normal. I didn't get extremely big though so that could be why

You'll still look about 6 months pregnant. As your uterus shrinks back down, your belly will look smaller. You also have to let your skin go back. It will never look exactly the same again, however.

I didn't start showing at all until I was 8 month pregnant, so I'm curious as to what my belly will look like! Plus I've lost almost 20kg so I look nothing like myself bbefore I got pregnant.
