Not to bring your hopes down, but if you don't have the genetics, you will not get the 6-pack abs, no matter how hard you try.  Now, I'm not saying forget it and live a life of a slob, but temper your expectations.  Eat healthy (low fat, moderate carbs), Do Cardio work regularly, change your workouts from time to time and you will have a healthy look and body.  Spot training doesn't work, so don't focus on your stomach so much, but in your body as a whole.

This takes a consistent exercise and nutrition plan. No ab exercise or machine reduces the size of your abs. Most of the claims made by such companies are fictitious and have no basis on science. Focus on eating 4 to 5 small healthy meals a day consisting of fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, unsalted nuts and seeds and if you eat meat select baked, broiled fish, chicken and turkey. Avoid fast food and junk like sodas. Begin by going on a brisk walk with your baby for 4,000 steps daily. Slowly increase your distance each week with a goal to do 8 to 10 thousand steps a day. I do recommend Yoga or Pilate's for your posture and breathing.

Doing alot of cruches and ab exercises will help, however as a guy thats the first place that fat accumulates within the cells.  If you're looking for minor definition ab exercises and monitor your fat intake.  For a 6 pack, you'd have to eliminate fat from your diet almost completely.  You don't want to eliminate all fat, because your body uses fat for energy.  If there's no fat for energy, the next energy supply is muscle tissue.  Also, family history has a role in it as well.  You may a longer battle depending on your family history.

You have two options. \n\nYou can cut calories and perform crunches like crazy, try one of the hot new incredible infomercial ab devices and buy the lastest new and improved  "fat burner". \n\nAlso there is another  option but it is not too popular. Eat right, Understand functions of the abdominal muscles, work the body as a whole, and allow for ongoing fat release. \n\nOf all of two options, there is only one that "works," all of the time. Unfortunately, it "appears" to be the most complicated. \n\nHere is the Real Ab-Solution:\n\nBefore we go any further, I would like to point out that slimming down your abdominal parts REALLY means reducing you body fat percentage in those areas. Therefore, the goal is to reduce your body fat percentage.  \n\nNow that we understand what we are seeking, let us zero in on the solution.\n\nStep 1: Eat right to release the fat from the fat cells\n\n"Eat right" sounds so simplistic, but the idea is maximize natural unprocessed foods and minimize processed or junk foods (Please do not go on a depravation diet, it will make things worse). However, you also need to eat in a way that supports Fat loss.\n\nThe real trick lies in stabilizing blood sugar, which allows fat to be released from your fat cells. You would do that by eating meals free from simple sugars and refined carbs, low in processed saturated fat, and balanced with protein, complex carbs, fiber, and essential fatty acids. \n\nStep 2: Move your body to burn the fat in the muscle cells.\n\nOnce the fat is release from the cells, they need to be burned in your muscle cells. Releasing the body fat is not enough; you need to support your nutrition with a more active lifestyle. If you are not active, the released fat just goes back to the fat cells and they are not burned. Burning that fat make your "six packs" visible. \n\nYou not only need to work on your abs or core muscles but you also need to work you the body as a whole (focus on the major muscles like your legs and back).\n\nThen you need to optimize circulation with moderate aerobic exercise (do not go crazy), and fat release should be consistent and ongoing, and a little at a time, those abs will shine through.\n\nDO NOT continue doing something just because "THEY" say it's the way things should be done. Allow yourself to choose the solution that will work for you, regardless of what it may be. The only way for you to know who is right is to measure your progress and ACTUALLY track your results.\n\nCHANGE IS HARD, but it's also worth it. Not getting results makes change EXTREMELY HARD.\n\nGet support from friends, family or a coach. Losing weight is not as hard at it seems once you know what to do. \n\nVisit http://www.charlesblain.com for the best weight loss exercises.\n\nGood Luck with your journey…

Ab excercises girl! Don't go to far if you don't want a six pac, but done it out a little. A muscular belly is pretty sexy.\n\nAb workouts\n\n1) sit-ups ( put weights across your chest and do them. Bout 10 pounds)\n\n2) Leg lifts: Lay down flat, and put both your legs over your head, then slowly put them down. Make sure each up and down takes at least four seconds.\n\n3) V sit: Sit on your butt, and lift your back and legs of the mat to form the shap of a V. Reach toward your toes for balance\n\nP.S. Diet while your doing all this. Eating chocolate cake WON'T exactly help. Peace!

First you need to loose fat. Start doing some weight training. Also try some high intensity interval training. Directions for that are here.\nhttp://www.stayingdedicated.com/Fitness%20Site/Library/List/QandA/articles/high_intensity_interval_training.htm\nTo get your abs firm and bigger, you do want to target them with a set of weighted decline situps. However most of the training for abs happens when you target your legs. Any form of squats and deadlifts are great for abs. They are also big fat burners.

to see a six pack its more about losing fat and excess weight...80% food and 20% exercise for the abs buddy...\n\neven if you lose it quickly unless you exercise it will just come back...do the Atkins induction for a couple of weeks then get into the south beach diet for a while....but really, exercise every day ..... you really want muscle?  Work out everyday giving 48 hours for your muscle group to heal.  One day do benches and curls etc etc..the next leg work and a walk...etc...take 100% whey protein and take creatine..you will gain about 3-10 pounds in muscle and lost about the same in fat...then it wil balance out...

The key to 6-pack abs is to have a low percentage of bodyfat. Ab exercises in fact contribute very little to having a tight midsection. However, some ab work is great for overall fitness and back support and I don't want to downplay the importance of core strength. \n\nMany trainers look down on crunches these days, considering them not much more than an isometric exercise. Various types of leg and knee lifts are probably a better choice.

Unfortunately you cant just lose fat from your abdomen and nowhere else. This is a myth called 'spot reduction'. \nJust doing abdominal exercises will not get you a flat toned stomach or sixpack, a combination of cardio, resistance exercises and a healthy diet will, but this will apply to the whole of your body and ultimetly comes down to percentage body fat and calorie expenditure.

lay flat on your back, with your hands palm down at your side, put your legs together and lift them off the ground about 6 inches for as long as u can stand it.  this helps to work the lower (harder to tone) abs.

Cardio.  the only way to get rid of a belly is cardio.  You can do all the ab exercises in the world and you'll have a nice six pack covered by fat.  If youre serious, do cardio 30 min a day, six days a week.  If youre not so motivated, make sure it's at least 3 times per week.

You have to burn the fat and then sculpt your mid section...\n\nTry doing crunches on a balance ball.  It makes you stablize your body and make you focus on your core muscles.  When you are crunching remember to put your arms behind your head and keep them apart as you crunch up.  You can reach to the opposite legs and work on your obliques.\n\nGood luck!!!  It really takes discipline to keep fit.  You will need more than a month to get a six pack.

to get great abs your going to have to loose weight.  Doing sit ups will never get rid of a fat stomach, it could actually result in a bulkier stomach.  Do 3 sets of 12 weighted sit ups, 2 to 3 times a week, and  do cardio atleast 15 minutes of cardio 3-5 times a week, AND WATCH YOUR DIET!!!!\n\n\nTo get a great butt, do squats.\n\n\nthese are the only answers you need, so get out and do something.
