This belly

wow...! you're going back so soon, I am 5weeks post so by experience ,do not try to hold your tummy in,or only if your comfortable with a body suit, and it's not to tight. I saw my doctor today,I asked about the belly because mine has a mind of it's own, she reminded me it will take weeks!, let our body rest and heal for a quality healing,can't rush this one!
so please take it slow, I know because I have overdone it ,and felt it the next day or day after!... I thought I was going to hear my doctor o.k. me for sex today, no fat chance she said!!.. she still could see stitches! even after 5 weeks and 2 days!.....So let's take it slow,xoxo

My daughter suggested this and I just looked at her like she was crazy but the more I think about it the more it sounds like they way to go.

get u some pull-string shorts or pull-string pj bottoms.i wore mine around the house for the 1st 3 months but excellent idea-maternity for working.

I found a pair of cute pants with some elastic on the waistband and bought a pair in all three colors!

I bought t- shirt type dresses casual also wear spandex type pants big shirts it hides the belly and is comfortable

Glad to hear I am not the only one getting the afternoon swelly belly! I am 8 weights post op and generally feel good in the morning but the afternoon/evening brings back the belly but definitely less and less as time goes on.
