Stubborn belly after 2nd c/s

Just wondering if you felt like it took a lot more effort to get your body back after your second child via c/s?  I had my 6wk p/p check up today and I've only lost 12 lbs (half) and I still look 5 months pregnant.  I certainly bounced back faster the first time around.  Anyone have luck using a girdle or shape wear to shrink their mid-drift? 

I hope that even if I lose weight that my shape doesn't stay like it is now.  Please tell me it will go down...eventually.

    It went down eventually! Although the weight came off for me very quickly (with #2 I only gained 20lbs and lost 12 of that giving birth) it took a good 6.5 months before I was in pre-pregnancy pants since my hips got wider.

    The good news is now I'm even thinner than I was before kids! Having 2u2 is really good for weight loss. You have 2 LOs to chase and eat all your food. LOL

    I feel your pain.  I do wear shareware to fit into some of my clothes because basically its just the belly. But I don't notice it "shrinking" anything any faster

    I was thinking the same thing. I had a really bad pooch above my scar and then I started doing Postnatal Bootcamp 2 by Lindsay Brin, I only go through 1 week of it and my pooch is down. I still have a bit of weight to lose but I had some left over from #1 but my stomach is looking more normal.
