11 Months Post Partum What is Wrong with my Stomach? (photo)

stacym
I had a baby last december, gained 23 pounds, all belly. I am a very physically fit person, before baby had a six pack. My stomach still has a weird shape to it. I have lost all my pregnancy weight and then some. Is this split abs?? I try to check for that and only one finger goes in, not two..so if it is a diastasis, I'm thinking it can't be that bad...I don't have much loose skin there, what to do about this?
