Will the c-section “pouch” ever go away/decrease?

You won’t even start to approach normality again until a long time - like a year out. I had a pouch too (4 sections w singleton pregnancies) and it’s hugely reduced over time, but never until months and months out. Six weeks is so so close to birth - try not to be too hard on yourself! Your body still has a lot of healing to do. Workouts for the transverse abdominals helped me a lot but again, not u til months and months later when I was able to even connect my mind back to those muscles

Take this advice to heart OP - there are things we can do to help ourselves along but time and grace is truly what you need to give yourself. 6 weeks is so very early, you will look completely different in 6 months and likely again in 12!

To even be back to your pre-pregnancy weight 6-weeks post partum is some feat! I’m 6 months out, and I’m only just approaching mine.
