Up to two-thirds of women walk around with it after pregnancy, and no amount of sit-ups is going to fix it. Diastasis recti is the separation of your ab muscles that happens when your body stretches to make room for a baby — and for most women, it doesn’t fully close back up on its own.San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Kat Gallus and scrub tech Bri break down what diastasis recti actually is, how to tell if you have it, who’s a candidate for surgical repair, and why this fix almost always comes packaged with a tummy tuck. Plus the real recovery timeline, what can stretch it back out again, and why insurance isn’t about to help you out here.Trending stories:E!
