Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
1. The muscles in your wife's abdominal region must be very lax due to the previous pregnancy or C-section. This might have caused the loose and less muscle mass.
2. Regular exercise after the delivery will help in gaining the tone of the muscles. She must start the exercises at least after 8 weeks of delivery after consulting her gynecologist.
3. It usually does not cause any problem after delivery as the stress on the abdominal wall decreases after delivery.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
