Is it recommended to have diastasis repair during c-section or wait until after birth to see if your body will recover?

I think ideally it would be best to wait until
you are back to pre-pregnancy weight prior to proceeding forward with any kind
of definitive repair and/or tummy tuck. This will help to ensure you achieve the best possible result. Make sure that your physician is board-certified in plastic surgery. Thank you for your question.

this is not a good idea to try and correct a distasis simultaneous to a c-section. Your body would have high circulation levels of hormones that would facilitate further relaxation for an acute repair. Better to recover and revisit this issue 9-12 months post partum to get the most predictable and best result most of the time.
