Cool story, but a lot of not quite correct information here. Women can get that from any pregnancy, from being pregnant, not just from a c-section. Men can get it too from things like doing sit ups or weight lifting incorrectly. And not every c-section is a vertical cut, most are horizontal cuts way down low at the bottom of the belly. I think it's something like two thirds of pregnancies that women get diastasis recti during the pregnancy. For many women, the opening made by the separation of those muscles during pregnancy shrinks after she gives birth, but for some women, it does not shrink or close even years later. Having a c-section with a vertical cut will make it more likely that the gap doesn't close.
Your doctor said, “Bro”? 😂
