My wife just gave birth through CS and it's over 4 weeks now but her stomach is still big...som1 says we shouldn't use hot water or any hot compressor

If she is fit, she can start walking for 30minutes daily and proceed to jogging. The tummy will reduce in size gradually. Exclusive breastfeeding also helps get back to shape. It's gradual, be patient and consistent

Merci beaucoup...Thanks very much

Op, my aunt who came for 3 omuguo was old sch ohh, she used to make me drink hot pepper soup and beverage all day, pressed my stomach with hot water morning and night, tied my stomach with a wrapper so tight I would find it hard to breathe and made me do sit ups few weeks after birth. She was so intimidating I couldnt object. But now people always comment on how flat(not totally ohh) my tummy is after 3 kids but am too ashamed to give them details of what I went through, but I am always thankful that I listened to her. Hopefully someone can help you with more modern techniques.

Thanks...I'm sure she wouldn't object to this system but is this applicable to her situation...she had a caesarian operation...not tru natural delivery

@OP: Please don't try this on your wife! She's had a C-Section, (a major operation) and her body needs time to heal. The last thing you want is for that wound to get infected or re-opened! She shouldn't even be lifting heavy objects and definitely needs to take things easy. Four weeks is still early days. She has all the time in the world to get back to shape but now's not that time. Pls let her body recover slowly and naturally. There's no rush.

My advice to you is to go with her for her 6-week post natal check-up with her doctor so she can be advised on what sort of exercises to do to keep fit. Walking for 30 minutes each day is good, so also is exclusive breastfeeding.

She can start working out after healing like any other sensible mother would do for the sake of her wellbeing
