I really don't mean to ruin your day or anything — but you've just gotta see these celebrity moms with abs flatter than a pancake. You know that whole "I've had a baby and that's why I'll never have a six-pack again" excuse for having a little extra flubber around the middle?
Yeah, apparently that's just a fancy way of saying, "I don't have a personal trainer or chef — nor the time, effort, and willpower it takes to make my stomach look perfect in a bikini."
That being said, it's still hard not to feel a twinge of jealousy after checking out these sexy mamas with insanely hot bods.
Take a look at these photos to see 10 of the flattest abs in Hollywood — all belonging to women who've had babies.

Gwen Stefani
What the what?!? Holy smokes. Wouldn't you wear belly-baring shirts if your stomach was this flat?
Kelly Ripa
Man! She doesn't have an inch to pinch!
Jessica Alba
Jessica's bikini body just isn't fair to the rest of us.
Melissa Rycroft
Sure, being on Dancing With the Stars toned her up even more, but Melissa's abs were flat in no time after she had her daughter Ava.
Brooke Burke
Damn. The end.
Miranda Kerr
I guess there's a reason she works for Victoria's Secret and we don't.
Katie Holmes
With a toned tummy like that, Katie should really think about wearing bikinis more often.
Bethenny Frankel
Yep. She's a Skinnygirl, all right. And she's lookin' good.
Lisa Rinna
Lisa quite possibly has the tightest abs in Hollywood. Did I mention she just turned 50? (You go, girl.)
Jennifer Lopez
Twins? What twins? It's hard to believe Jen was ever pregnant at all, let alone with two babies.
