Baby Weight

I had to have an emergency c-section and the doctor told me that I pretty much would never see my pre-baby body ever again because its harder to lose weight after a c-section.  Please tell me there is a way.  I have lost about 25lbs since birth but the skin just isn't snapping back as quick.  What are my healthy options??

I am the same, i have had my second c-section a year ago & iv still got the loose skin, its nuthing like it used to be. Congrats on loseing weight already but i would recomend the wii fit plus & go on the hula hoop, it really works. forget all the devises & dvds u can buy as im getting prepared for my wedding next year ive tried lots of things. im lucky my partner doesnt make me feel body conceous he loves me & my belly lol !! just keep at it & u will get there just try not be like me & fall pregnant again just as your getting there.

How long has it been since you had your baby? Congratulations! It took me 3 months for my skin to come back and i didn't have a c-section.
