A member asked:

What to do my stomach seems swollen 9mis after my c section i look like i'm 3mos pregnant also i have a hernia from previous baby?

Hernia: Hi you should definitely follow up to see if there is any reason for the swelling...It is possible to have uterine enlargement and ovarian cysts that can cause problems with abdominal bloating. The hernia could also cause problems with your bowels so should be evaluated.
