Cesarean Section

When is the appropriate time to tie your belly after undergoing a vertical incision (CS)? After how many months should one tie?

Actually there is no evidence that using a belly band will help you loose the ‘pregnancy belly or pooch’. It may help you fit better into some clothing, but there is no evidence that your body shape can truly improve because of a belly band. You can tie one after 8-10 weeks. The best way to lose and tone your abdominals is by proper diet and exercise which you can start after 3-4 months as it strengthens your core and builds up muscle.
