Vertical C-section cut

I had an emergency C-section and my scar is from my belly button down. Looking at the muscles in both sides my scar, one side looks "pudgier" than the other side. Does anyone else have a scar like this, and if so, how do I get both sides flat and unpuffy?  Just trying to get some semblance of my old tummy back. TIA

    I didn't have a vertical cut so I don't have specific experience, but I do see that you're only two months out, so it will take a bit of time.  Some of that could still be swelling from the surgery.  I was puffy for a while.

    my mom's scar is like this.  her belly is uniform, one side isn't pudgier than the other. i think it just takes time...i had the low transverse 6 days ago (rcs) and everything is still loose and yucky.  it all tightens up pretty fast though.  you'll be back to your old self sooner than you think, i bet!
