Hi Cathe!
I know there is a pregnancy and post-partum forum, but I have already posted there: I have a diastasis recti and thanks to Sheila Watkins 's help (I'll never stop blessing her for her invaluable advice!) I closed my gap almost completely (it's less than 1 finger on my navel ) and now- even if I don't have that "little mountain" bulging out right in the middle of my abs, I still have my upper abs bulging out, while mid and lower abs went back to previous form. I think that's because that upper layer has weakened throughout pregnancy. Do you have any advice about best ab exercises to correct this? I've read you had a complete diastasis and seeing you in your intensity series with that wonderful abs gives me a lot of hope- you're amazing!
Just one last thing: my son, 11 months old, is so accustumed to see you on the tv screen that every time I work-out and he sees you he waves his hands as if he wanted to say hello to you I bet he's your youngest fan ever
Thank you in advance for your reply (or to any of the Cathletes who would give me any tips)
