Normal: It can take many months for your stomach to get back into shape after a pregnancy and C-section. A healthy diet can help but you will also need to do some abdominal strengthening exercises. Check this site for some suggestions. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/fitness/multimedia/core-strength/sls-20076575
