You are making good progress. Continue with consistent, gentle exercises. Avoid any movements that cause bulging or straining.
Diastasis Recti is the partial or complete separation of the rectus abdominis, or "six-pack" muscles, which meet at the midline of your stomach. It is very common during and after pregnancy. This is because the uterus stretches the muscles in the abdomen to accommodate your growing baby.
This tool helps you track the closure of that gap, which is a key indicator of your core strength returning. Consistent, targeted exercises can greatly help in healing.
Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
Place two fingers above your navel and lift your head off the floor slightly.
Feel for the edges of the muscle and measure the distance between them in centimeters.
