    Had surgery!

    You can try physical therapy to help realign your diastasis. The results are not good but at least it’s non surgical. The PT needs to focus on transversus abdominis muscle training and educate you on what you can do to reduce the risk of tearing. Sit-ups and getting out of bed without rolling to your side are both no-no’s, for example. Pinterest has great pics on how to do these exercises yourself. Search for transversus abdominis and diastasis exercises.
