Diastasis repair: is it severe enough that it would be useful to have it closed? (photos)

Asked By:dralliesmith in Kansas City, Missouri

I have a midline abdominal wall separation since the birth of my third child. Although I’ve worked on reducing the appearance by strengthening my abdominal wall, it still bothers me and I would like to have it fixed. I’m wondering if it’s severe enough that it would be useful to have it closed or if I’m just being silly being bothered by it.
