I heard counting out loud can help make sure you aren't holding breath. I'm trying to do it when I remember but 1 yr pp and I still have 2 finger gap...and it pouches out below my ribs at rest. I'm sick of it...but it's hard to be consistent. Do I have to be seated or can I do it laying in bed?

I'm just getting started using the Tupler Technique, too. (Youngest is 2.5 years.) I get a little out of breath, too. I have stopped in the middle of a set of 100 to do a belly breath or two. On the diastatis rehab FAQ page, she says to be sure you're counting out loud because that makes you breathe right or to slow down. I'm afraid I really haven't been counting out loud; maybe I should try it!

Hey everyone I just came across this thread. Does anyone know the differences between the be fit mom program versus the tupler technique? Does one work better than the other for the diastasis recti? I'm 6 months pp and really wanting to close the gap before I ttc again ...

My son is 9 mo and I also look pregnant, despite having lost all the pregnancy weight and more. I had diastasis after the second and it got wider after the third. I started and stopped the Tupler technique so many times... I can't seem to be able to follow through, there are so many repetitions. But I'm trying to get myself motivated again. The first time I started I did it right for 2 wks and I could feel a difference in my core, the separation didn't change then, but my muscles were definitely stronger.

I'm so glad I found this! My Chiro just recommended a local lady who holds classes based on the Tupler method, but I was sure I could find out how to do it with out spending $100's on classes. Right now I had a two finger gap and lower back pain. I'll post again when I see results!
