Maybe I have very low patience, but is this normal to still have a large uterus four weeks post delivery?
I had c-section, but still, I wasn't expecting to still look like I have a baby in my tummy.
Did everyone else's uterus already completely shrink or do you still have a belly?

Ditto...my belly is still pudgy too!  I can't wait until my doctor clears me to exercise again.

im 4wks pp on this saturday and I still have a pudge going on. Although it has shrunk tremendously the last 5days or so, I can finally hold my breath and suck in and get into pants that i wore pre preggo. im a short person so I hold any weight much more than most others would.. Oh the joys of motherhood. trust me it does go away though, and most likely it will all of a sudden just fly off..

Your belly will go away, I don't know how much luck you will have with your stretch marks, You know certain people react differently to the creams, Just like some people do not even get stretch marks at all. I know I can use cream upon cream and nothing helps, I scar easily and I just have them, no amount of special oils or anything even fades mine. Oh well... Luckily mine are all below my belly button, so no two pieces, but if my shirt goes up a tiny bit and you see skin, you don't see what freddy kruger left behind, thats what I call my stomach, it looks like freddy kruger came and attacked me and left.

I wish you luck and hope you are different and your stretch marks fade away almost to NOTHING like they are supposed to.
