Loose Skin and Deformed Belly button

I have 8 lbs of the 42 l gained left to lose. I worked out until Thursday night and went into labor at 4am on a Friday. I was finally given the ok to ease back into it slowly-(I had a c-section 19 days ago) so I put DS down for a nap and got back on my elliptical for 40 minutes. I then did several stretches and just focused on tightening my abs and releasing them for 20 minutes. Still nervous about doing any actual weights with my incision looking like it is. 

When did your skin tighten back up and your belly button go back to normal? I feel like I have a lot more than 8 lbs to lose. Maybe its just my uterus still needing to shrink but I don't know....Thanks!

    I had my six week PP and my uterus has contracted and I only have about 4 pounds to lose to get back to pre-pregnancy weight......and it seriously looks like 15 extra pounds.  Sorry I don't have a better reference for when it might go away, just thought you might like to know. I think a lot of us are in the same boat.  Good luck.  I think the ab workouts will help a lot.
