Your womb takes up to 8 weeks to contract back to its normal size, then there’s still fat that we need to burn. It takes weeks to months to lose weight, and some people also never lose all the pregnancy weight or the the tummy entirely. Please don’t feel the urgency to lose your tummy. Recover from labour and focus on your baby first :) Eating a well balanced diet is also important for producing enough breastmilk. Breastfeeding and exercise will certainly help you lose weight. There’re lots of ways to exercise with your baby too, once you’ve recovered:)
I’ll share you my method. I use a waist trainer immediately after birth, all day (I only took it out when I’m taking a shower) I also use a tummy cream... it’s for after birth and it helps harden my tummy and when I use a waist trainer it created that hourglass shape. I use it for 4 months... until I really don’t need it anymore... my waist is 24cm now.
Exercise after confinement can help. Some people massage and put on binder during confinement. It takes some times and need our patient.. Mine flatten after few months. Hard but it's possible
I use a binder daily. It wont get down so fast but i manage to get rid most of it in 3 months. Breastfeeding helps to slim down too. But till now there's still alittle bump
after 6m of popping, my tummy was still big. it’s only 6 days for you... take it easy! congrats and enjoy motherhood :)
Use binder! My friend swears by Envy Her binders. Can purchase from SuperMom, free delivery ◡̈

It will take some time, 6 days is still short. Can try massages
