I thought I was looking cute today at work (khakis, white button down, with snazzy belt) then I went to the bathroom and realized I HAVE PANCAKE BUTT. The type of butt you'd pair with MOM JEANS.
I haven't exercised at all post part (7 mos), and at my job I'm sitting down all day, which has resulted in arse looking like a pancake. Sigh..
Does anyone else experiencing pancake butt post-baby?

This just made me LOL, and not because I am trying to make fun of you! I've always called my butt "pancake butt" because it's so flat. Unfortunately all the ladies in my family have been blessed with this problem, and working out doesn't even help. I was hoping pregnancy would plump it up a bit but NOPE!

HAHAHA. Pancake butt. I'm not sure if I have it or not...I'll have ot look tonight. Mostly, I avoid looking at my body in general these days. Also, I love you. I'm almost 4m pp and I haven't worked out either. Don't really plan on it anytime soon....

This happened to me before we even started TTC- I definitely blame sitting at a desk all day. I started doing 50 lunges + 50 squats daily, eventually up to 100 each, and it literally changed overnight! I hated how flat my butt was - and how it was sliiiiiiding down my legs instead of staying up high where it should be!

nooooo! i wish i more of a booty & i haven't had a baby yet, i can't afford to loose that i do have! i must not open this thread again.... squats, lunges & stairs are really good for the bum though.

My butt has also become quite flat post pregnancy! I tell my husband I laughed my a*s off!

@Clementine: this post is hilarious 
I haven't gotten pregnant yet, but thanks for the reminder to get up out of my seat more often during the workday!

Ah yes. I've always had a flat-ish butt but its definitely more pancakey post partum. I think I need to start doing some squats and lunges to lift it back up!

I had no idea pregnancy made your butt flat until one of my exercise class instructors mentioned it.
Plie squats and regular squats will definitely help!

My butt has always been flat. My butt and my back are perfectly aligned, it's so embarrassing. MY hubs has a nice tush and so does LO...But all babies' bums are delicious.

I have the opposite problem. DD's new favorite trick is to come up behind me when I'm not expecting it, pat me on the butt and say, "Momma has a big butt just like me!" Sigh, it's cute when it's in the middle of the post office with a line of 20 people behind you.

LOL!! ME! I used to have a cute little bubble butt (seriously, was my best asset)....now it's pancake butt. I've lost all the weight, but at 4 months PP things are just....flabby.
