A guide to 11 exercises for diastasis recti (muscle separation) after pregnancy, and when repair is considered.
This guide sets out 11 exercises for diastasis recti (muscle separation) after pregnancy: dead bugs, heel slides, bridges, pelvic tilts, leg raises, table tops, bent knee fall outs, kegels, wall sits, transversus abdominis breathing and clams. Check with a physiotherapist or your GP before starting. Whether repair is reasonable later is decided at consultation, after a GP referral.
