A member asked:
Is it possible for my obgyn to make my stomach muscles a little bit tighter or anything like that when sewing me back up during my c section?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This usually requires the coordination with a plastic surgeon. It can be done. However there's not much point unless this is going to be your last baby. You might get a better cosmetic result if you wait until 3-4 months after delivery. What needs to be done would be clearer then.
