I have a diastasis recti, 8-9 fingers wide, If I have surgery now, will I be able to have more kids later?

You can have the diastasis repaired without harming future pregnancies, but it may make more sense to wait until you have finished children.A physical exam would be necessary to make a determination about the appropriate intervention.
Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of tummy tuck procedures each year. Then look at the
plastic surgeon's
website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can
deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Thank you for the question.I definitely think that you should wait until you're done having children as this issue might not be subtle for your case as is. Speak to your surgeon and find out what other options you might have.Dr. Campos

With a "diastasis recti" 8 to 9 fingers wide I would recommend you have this evaluated to be certain it is not actually a hernia. I personally don't recommend a tummy tuck procedure until you no longer plan on having more children. It is counter intuitive to undergo the expense, risks and recovery of an abdominoplasty if the results will be mostly reversed with future pregnancies. I would advise you to be patient, enjoy having more children, and then reap the long term benefits of a tummy tuck.
