@mommymango: If your ab separation and deep core hasn’t healed yet, doing traditional ab exercises like sit-ups or crunches puts pressure on the abdominal wall, pushing the muscles further apart. Instead of strengthening your core, these exercises can widen the gap, weaken the connective tissue, and even lead to doming or bulging in the midline of your stomach. On top of that, sit-ups can overload your back, increase pressure, and cause symptoms like lower back pain, leaking, or pelvic heaviness. What your body needs instead is a gentler approach that focuses on rehabbing the deep core first. Want to try what helped me?
