what it claims

To effectively rebuild and strengthen the abdominal wall after significant laxity, one must follow a very progressive protocol, starting by activating the transverse abdominis (deep abs) before engaging the rectus abdominis (superficial abs), while increasing intensity in a slow and controlled manner.

The progressive approach recommended for reactivating the abdominal wall is based on solid foundations. A literature review conducted by Luo et al.

The progressive approach recommended for reactivating the abdominal wall is based on solid foundations. A literature review conducted by Luo et al. (2025) confirms that working the transverse abdominis through deep stabilization exercises significantly improves overall core strength. Furthermore, several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) support the value of a slow and controlled progression to gently awaken the abdominal area. However, the idea of strictly avoiding the rectus abdominis at the beginning requires nuance. A landmark meta-analysis published by Benjamin et al. indicates that there is no evidence that isolating the transverse is systematically superior to more global abdominal movements, as the latter also prove to be highly beneficial when performed with good control. The key, therefore, lies in a progressive adaptation of tension based on one's own physical sensations.

What the graded evidence says

Evidence: B

Effect: postpartum exercise effect on inter-rectus distance and pelvic floor disorders — abdominal muscle training reduced the inter-rectus distance vs no exercise (low certainty); postpartum pelvic floor muscle training reduced odds of urinary incontinence and of pelvic organ prolapse (OR 0.44, 95% CI 0.21-0.91)
Measured on: individuals in the first year postpartum

Evidence that abdominal training narrows the gap is of low certainty, and the exact protocol (which exercises, what order) isn't firmly established. The pelvic floor benefits are better supported. Individual guidance from a pelvic-health professional is ideal.

Sleeping apart from one's partner (a "sleep divorce") helps preserve sleep quality and relationship harmony, without sleeping in separate rooms harming the relationship.

Sleeping in separate beds or rooms does not affect a couple's happiness and may prove beneficial by improving the quality of each person's rest.

Other advice in the Register that leans on the same research.

Diastasis recti (separation of the abdominal muscles) disrupts the natural synergy of the abdominal wall and the pelvis, which can directly impact the strength and support of the pelvic floor.
