Hi,
With baby #1 I still had the mama pooch at 3 months. I can't tell you about after baby #2 since I am still pregnant with her. I do remember holding a few pounds in my tummy after dd was born. I did sit ups and intense cardio. After she weaned herself at 9 months, my tummy flattened back out so I think for me the mommy tummy was just extra fat for nursing. Hopefully it is the same for you.

I think it's possible to get rid of the extra fat covering the abs, but there's not too much you can do about the loose skin. It does get better over time, but unless you are extremely genetically lucky it doesn't go away completely.

After my second baby I got to where I could see my upper abs, but not lower and it took a long time to get to that point.

good luck!
