Diastasis (Abdominal Split) due to pregnancy - can you repair w/ exercise or just surgery?

[mbschneider]

Hello,
Does anyone know if diastasis can be fixed with exercise or is surgical repair necessary? If you have experience with this issue, I would greatly appreciate your insights.
Thanks!

Hi Mary Beth
There are several threads regarding this out here, if you do a quick search on diastsis. There's even an active one right now if you scroll further down in this forum.

In short, most can be repaired by exercise. There are some discussions going on about the best way in which to do that.
I suggest checking out a lot of the info that's already out here.
