Does your belly bulge out when you cough?
This is common after pregnancy, C-section, or with Diastasis Recti—but it should not be ignored.
When you cough, pressure increases inside the abdomen. If your deep core muscles are weak or pressure is not managed well, the tummy may bulge or dome outward.
👉 Common reasons:
• Diastasis Recti
• Weak core connection
• Poor breathing mechanics
• Postpartum recovery gaps
👉 What can help?
✔ Exhale before coughing
✔ Gentle core brace
✔ Deep core rehab exercises
✔ Proper pressure management training
Small signs like this can tell a lot about your core health.
