postpartum exercise questions

Okay.

For the past six weeks, my friend and I have been doing Insanity with Shawn T. The workout. Let me tell you, after three weeks of that, Jillian Michaels is like a joke. Anyway.

We've noticed ourselves getting a lot stronger, and we've noticed more definition in our arms and legs, but for both of us it seems that our abdomens have actually gotten flabbier.

Technically this can't possibly be true (right?) because I know for a fact that our ab muscles are stronger now. However, they are actually getting bigger instead of smaller, if that makes sense.

My friend had a C-section three months ago and I delivered vaginally four months ago. Anyone know why ab work is making our abs bigger instead of smaller?
