There are some natural ways that will help a little bit. \n1. Massaging your breasts. (I think that only works when you're developing.)\n2. Do more breast exercises. (Exercises strengthens your muscles underneath your breast to make them look bigger.)\n3. Drink more milk \n4. Gain more weight.\n \nAnd I don't think pregnancy work, because after you finish nursing your baby, your boobs will be sagging!!!

If the belly fat you are talking about is actually loose skin left over from losing weight or pregnancy, the only way to lose it is through surgery.  You lose actual belly fat only by losing fat all over your body - diet and exercise.  As much as we would like it to be different, there is no such thing as spot reduction.

With good diet and exercise anything is possible. Also, nursing helps you lose the baby weight as well. It takes up to 2 years for your body to return to normal. Even then, it is still not the same.

well, basically the reason you body retains more weight in that area is due to a lot of factors.  In our bodies, when you eat more calories than the ones your body need for its metabolism, the body smartly (?) packs those extra calories in the form of fat, saving calories and energy for the future. In pregnancy there's this huge amount of hormones (estrogens, progestagens, etc) that make your body going to a lot of changes in order to keep this little person inside of you alive.  But some of this hormones also produce the weight gaining you are complaining of. But dont loose hope... there's a few tips you can do to improve this...\n1. Drink a lot of water!, instead of instant juices or sodas, water can give you the hidratation you need, without the calories..\n2. Excercise regularly!, yeah, its hard to say it, but you dont have to go to a gym, you can simply walk around your neighborhood for half an hour everyday... do this, and i assure you'll see results after a few weeks\n3. Eat healthy, i.e. no fats, no big meals, no junk food, more veggies and no candy (cakes or whatsoever), instead of candy, you can eat fruit... its way better.... and healthier... :)

Was it your first pregnancy?  I have heard women complain about weight gain after having a baby, and how hard it is to lose.  Maybe that's your body's metabolism reacting to the pregnancy.  A few of my friends that have had an ab*rt**n still lactate.  It's funny-I call them human coffee creamers! :)\nAnyway, you may also want to look at your diet.  Don't \n"go on a diet", persay.  Have a diet.  Eat the same way all the time and you can cut parts out without eliminating an entire food group.  Like sweets, for example.  That's how binges happen.  If you leave those out, you're more likely to binge on bad stuff later anyway.  If you keep the "bad stuff" in your diet, you'll probably wind up eating less of it, really.  On a binge, I know I could eat 2 packages of cookies, a cake, need I go on.  You're less likely to eat the all that in a day's time.  Also, do you emotional eat?  That's a huge culprit for weight gain.  Women get the a*s end of pretty much everything.  Ugh.  Hope all goes well.

My first son, I lost the weight easily...with my second son it was harder. I cut my portion sizes down a little, drank alot more water, and did alot of walking (cause that was easiest for me...just put the kids in the stroller and go). It give you time with your kids and it's the best to get back to pre-baby weight. You can try sit ups in the evening before you go to bed to tighten your tummy. I did alot of this and was back in my old jeans before my son turned 9 months old. It's not fast, but you do see results after a few months. I didn't have the time to keep a regular workout.

Your body has changed from giving birth ,do not worry this is normal,In Vancouver where I live many women with newborns jog every day with there kids in a carriage and the pounds eventually come off.Don't forget if you are breast feeding as you should be you need additional proteins-vegetables ,juices for a healthy child.Do the exercise cut back on processed foods and treat your body like a goddess and you will lose weight and more important have a very healthy child-GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

I bought one of those roller things that you roll on the floor forward and back while kneeling. It has burned a lot of fat on my tummy. But I still have a little extra pudge from being prego. I think that sometimes your skin stretches and when you lose the weight, Presto- excess skin. It doesn't always go back to the way it was.

First, it is mostly not your fault that you have excess belly fat (if that is what it is). You need to re-learn everything that this society has taught you about eating food. It has not just hurt you. It has made (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) obesity the # 1 health problem in the world, replacing hunger and infectious disease. So this keeps getting worse, not better. So you are a victim of this PANDEMIC (epidemic).\n\nSo if you want to continue being a victim then just keep doing what you are doing. If not, then take the time and make the investment in yourself to  learn everything on the website below. You need to re-learn how to eat. Do this and you will get thin and healthier. Do this not and you will continue with whatever you have now.\n\nYou need to learn about getting rid of bodyfat, retained water and something else that gives you a bigger BELLY only. It does not make you fatter anywhere else. You cannot burn it away but you can flush it down the toilet after an enema (lose 5 to 20 pounds in an hour). This is a secret trick used by models and dancers before an event. It is only temporary without a change in diet but makes your tummy flatter that day if you are going to a WEDDING or REUNION.\n\nBut this is optional since there are many different powerful strategies to lose weight which are less time consuming than running an hour everyday. Many celebreties do that to stay thin and you can start doing that now if you want and it will work.\n\nThe very quickest way to lose weight is to take an enema and then to fast 3 to 5 days. You could lose up to 25 pounds but it is not dangerous since very little of it is bodyfat. Site includes info on fasting from 8 different MDs. It is great for health. Even Jesus did it. Plus it produces ketones, the most powerful appetite suppressant. Plus metabolism speeds back up to normal as soon as you start eating again. But it has slower ways of losing weight also. It explains how sunlight and sleep help you to lose more weight.

well first cut out carbs,it seems to bloat the belly and stores fat there.also drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.do not do sit ups right away because it will only build muscle under the fat and will make your stomach look bigger.try walking at least 30 minutes a day and work aerobics in your schedule about 3 times a week.

Eliminate all sugars from your diet and do situps or other stomach exercises. You'll be surprised how fast you eliminate fat!

It's actually a common problem for anyone who has had a dramatic weight loss. The part your doc went wrong was not making you aware of this in the beginning. My sister went in for gastric bypass surgery, and the first thing they told her about was the excess skin. She's currently saving up for cosmetic surgery. I had the same problem after I had my second son. My chest was 32c before I had my son, and by the time that he was born they were a 42DD. After I stopped producing milk, they shrunk back to their old size only they hung like two water balloons in tube socks lol. I did have surgery done to bring them back up. It took me a year to save up the money for the surgery. But I couldn't be happier. So try throwing all your extra change in a coffee can, cut out the unnecessary things in your life (like I cut out my Starbucks coffee and cigarettes) and put that money in the can. Before you know it you'll have the money to get it done.

You'll want to wait until the baby is older.  You'll be in the hospital for a few days and very sore from surgery afterward.\n\nKeep in mind that bariatric surgery isn't a cure all.  At the Kimkins Diet site we have members who had surgery and still remained overweight because they didn't change their food choices.\n\nIn addition, you'll find it difficult to eat many foods.  They don't fit through the new small stomach opening.  \n\nWhat you WILL be able to eat is plenty of high calorie food that turns liquid and passes right through like mashed potatoes, gravy, sugar cereal, milk, soda, cheesecake, pastries, rice, beer, milkshakes, candy, rum, wine and vodka.

Look up "Visceral Fat" on the internet. At least I think thats what its called. Its the fat thats actually located not only on top of your stomach muscle, but under it, causing that "pooch" look. Its best removed with exercise that is ment to burn fat from the entire body (Running, or just walking quickly for 30mins a day) Also belly fat increases dramatically if a month or more goes by without significant exercise. Lowering your body fat percentage, not your actual weight is the goal here. Less fat equals less tummy.
