    I don't think so but is it because of the scar? My scar is actually below my belly at my underwear line so I don't think that will be a problem for me. The doc even said he wanted to hide the scar for me. :). The only thing that could prevent it is if you have diastasis recti which is a separation of the abdominal muscles. Can be caused by pregnancy and give you a pooch. Can be helped with certain exercises.

    I didnt think having a c section affects that at all? The only thing that looks different about my belly is my scar but it’s down low

    I'm not at goal yet, but I have been before (LOL) - you can get a flat stomach after c-sections. I've had two - my second child weighed almost 10 pounds.

    I've had two C-sections and have always wondered this too. I've been overweight since I had my babies 17 and 15 years ago. This gives me hope!
