Diastasis recti is a separation of the abdominal muscles that often occurs during pregnancy. If you still have a belly that sticks out after baby, a feeling of core weakness or a dome that appears when you sit up, you may have a diastasis. We've prepared a tutorial to help you measure your diastasis and determine the width of your abdominal gap.

Yes. About 60% of women have abdominal diastasis after pregnancy.

The most common signs are:
• A belly that sticks out or stays bloated.
• A bulge in the center of the abdomen during exertion.
• A feeling of core weakness.
• Back pain.
• Pelvic floor pressure or weakness.

Every woman is different. Some may have a diastasis without all of these symptoms.

Your program depends mainly on the width of your diastasis.

Step 1: diastasis of 3 cm and more
Step 2: diastasis of 2 cm and less
Step 3: diastasis of 2 cm and less
Step 4: weight-loss program to follow after closing your diastasis
