yep yep eh hem...very familiar with the mommy belly....I would say diet diet diet.....i've been working my arse off....literally....and that's the last place I've begun to see results. It just takes time, patience, dedication, did i say patience??maximus99 said:
As i'm sure most people will say...she can't "spot reduce". Just sticking to a clean diet and workout has made all the difference in the world for me.

Not really for the ab area -- like HH said- you can't spot reduce. Its all about diet there. Women tend to hold their bodyfat in the stomach / waist / hips. If you start doing crazy amounts of sit-ups & ab work, all it really does is make you thicker in the waist. The goal is decrease the bodyfat in that area, but it generally takes longer -- when you diet, train & do cardio -you decrease bodyfat at the same rate across your whole body. But if you happened to hold more fat cells in certain areas, like stomach / waist / hips, then losing , say 5% bodyfat will be less noticeable where there is more fat cells than where there is less. -- i.e. the waist/ stomach / hips. So you just get a good diet & training in place & keep plugging away.
She can also add in Yohimburn as a topical fat burner that will help -- but again its not a magical potion . Still takes diet. And by "diet", I mean a consistent diet w/o random cheats & binges, along w/ consistent training & some cardio.
For a good example of this -- take a look at the stickies at the top or print them out for your wife - Shadow's Project & Project Summary.

Pregnancy can also cause the abdominal muscle to stretch beyond normal and some women find that it doesn't "snap back" even with diet & exercise. Also, all the diet & exercise in the world won't help her loose skin -- it may shrink back -- but it will take time. Get her on a good eating & exercise program and after being on it for a while, regroup, see where she is with the ab area. Plastic surgery is often used in this are in women who've had children, with good success.
